My pops just dropped his GT off at Shelby for the supersnake package. They are takin the stock super off, I think it's possible but is it worth tryin to put that thing on my '05 5.4L? Thanks for any info guys...

 

i know you cant put a 4.6 supercharger from a cobra onto a truck 4.6, because the 4.6 in the mustang is a DOHC.


I'd imagine the 5.4 is a DOHC motor also, but I'm not sure. Someone else will chime in

 

You are correct. The GT500s have DOHC 4v heads and 04+ 5.4L trucks have SOHC 3v heads. Won't work.

tsho123, which option is your father getting? 600hp or 725hp?

 

ger rod: dude, you just made me realize I am gonna end up droppin like
5-6gs, DAMNIT! He got the 700+ its just a Sunday car and we're gonna trailer it back to Socal from Vegas so no worries on the reliability issue.

 

look at the procharger, roush intercooled, whipple and magnacharger kits for your truck

 

it will work if u make adapter plates. both 3v and 4v heads use oval intake ports. shouldnt be to hard

 

Why bother with the hassle of having someone carve a custom set of adapter plates (which would not be cheap)? There's nothing particularly fancy about the GT500's blower...just Gen V rotors in a Gen VI case that's 10 cid/rev bigger than a Lightning's M112. Could probably get a complete kit with a more capable blower that would work better and probably cost less in the long run.

 

Alright well thanks for the feedback, I think just gettin a kit is the route I'm gonna take now...

 

I read somewhere that the GT-500 supercharger would work if you used a Roush P-51 intake manifold.I looked and couldnt find the manifold and diddnt call.It would be great if it would work cause I have an extra-But it might need a new snout as well to align with the F-150 belt profile,Then a pulley-GT-500s are 10 rib,And who knows what else.Just too big of a hassle.

 

P-51 intakes are for 4.6's right? You'd have to run adapter plates to get the P-51 to fit on the 5.4L
