well if the supercharger originally came off a supercoupe then it wont work without changing heads. If its a bolt on vortech, or procharger kit i dont see any reason it wont work.

That supercharger did not come off of a Mustang. More likely came from a T-bird supercoupe.

The two cars use different systems and the number of small parts needed to make this work is more that first meets the eye.

The fact that anyone would miss-represent the item to such an extent, should give you pause.

If you are expecting this to be a simple bolt on, you will be disappointed. So unless you are well versed in custom fab work, walk away. At the very least, do more research on what is needed to transplant a supercoupe supercharger to a Mustang.
