Has any one swaped a Eaton blower from a Lighting or Cobra on a GT??? I see a lot of them for sale on the net for $500-$1,000. Some have had port work done to them by Apen. The lighting is a 4.6 modular motor just like the stang only diffrent thing i can see is the way the port holes will be made. But some guy's have PI-Intakes on 96-98 GT and they have diffrent port holes. Hell I have SVO-Heads with a PI -Intake and it pull's hard with on trouble at all. Any way can it be done if so this would be nice for any one on a budget. I can't see way it can't bee done as long as you port mach the blower to the lower intake. Just like you do for a Intake swap for a PI upgrade. What do you guy's think????

The lighning is a 5.4L not a 4.6 the heads are the same but the deck height of the block is larger, making the intake wider so the lower intake won't fit.
