Has anyone tried putting a Eaton supercharger from an 03 Cobra onto a 02 GT? They're all over eBay anywhere from $100 on up. What would it take to put one on and make it work properly? Most I've seen just come with the blower, pulley, plenum, and throttle body. What else is needed?
I know a Paxton or Vortech is probably better but at prices in the $3k to $4k range, I really don't feel like having my wife divorce me at this point. Just wondering if the Eaton would be worth the couple hundred bucks or should I just hide some cash from the old lady til I can afford something better. Thanks.

The reason it's so cheap, is because without a -lot- of custom fabrication or a DOHC swap, it's not going to work.

its cheaper to buy one designed for the 2V. it will cost you a lot to make it work. Plus, the eaton isnt that great. Its not efficeint and theres a reason why its known as a Heaton.
