Well after reading your post I see what you want...that supercharger runs around $1600 dollars...and you will want a good tune also...with some bigger injectors and bigger fuel pump...

Check around on ebay for some used ones...some people sell them brand new for cheap on there after deciding they don't want it...

no not necassarilly, 42 would be slightly to large for your motor combo, especially with 5-6 psi

Go with 36lb injectors...or 42lbs if you can get a tune and you would be just fine...a tune will do it all...

I knew you meant the Vortech kit...I don't believe it comes with a computer though...because combos vary when people slap on a supercharger...

Yeah go with the 255lph fuel pump...

Here ya go... check this one out:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...tem=7924169516&category=33741&sspagename=WDVW

Find out for sure if the thing is setup for a GT-40 lower. It doesn't look like the person that answered the question on ebay knew what the hell he was talking about. Any of the 5 liter kits can be setup for a GT-40 lower regardless of size.

Who is super stallion? ...you mean me (5spd GT)...After you hit a certain number of posts you get automatic names under you screenname like "street master" and my current "super stallion"...just for your information...

Well I would do a compression check...but if you got a tune (any mustang shops or dynos in your area)...they could set you up with a nice daily driver tune that would help the chance of your block not splitting or letting go...somepeople have had their engine "fail" at 300rwhp and some at 550rwhp...it all depends...it is hard to say without knowing the real condition of your engine and its rotating assemblies...

Good Luck
