i was messing around on summit and found this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PAX-1001845/

its for a 4150 intake and it looks like it could be made to fit with little or no modification so if u arnt a parts thumping pureist it might be an interesting proposition speaking of i am eyeballing it for my truck these things ran low compressin ratios right and would i have to change my cam or not

Moved to the technical section.

 

A camshaft with at least 112° lobe centers would be preferred.  Stock cams would work well with this but any increases in performance would need a camshaft specifically ground for blower use.

Do you have a 5.0 liter Mustang motor in your truck? If so, yeah...guess you could supercharge it with this kit, but like Ted says, you will need to at least change the cam and having forged pistons would be better than cast pistons. If you have a Y-Block in your truck, not much from this kit would work.

On the Paxton website, it says nothing about changing the cam for it's intended application. It's meant to be a bolt on. That does not mean that you will not benefit if you use a cam designed for a blower. I say for the price, get an authentic F-code setup.

Ebay, craigslist, swap meets. Frank might still have brackets, pulleys, and bonnets available.
