Anyone out there know if a 2003 stock cobra SVT supercharger off a 4.6 - 32 valve will fit my 2000 Qvale Mangusta? JD

Actually it's an Eaton M 112 off a 2003 Cobra.

I would talk to a Hypo Mustang shop about compatibity. Complete engine with SC would probably fit but electronics and plumbing may have to "sorted"

Have an appointment with a Blue Oval mechanic in Daytona next month.. Thanks John Can you give me a price on a new hood in case of clearance problems ? JD

Hood is $715.00 bare, no paint or hardware.

Thanks John. JD

What supercharger did you go with I know that some people have used the Vortec or the Paxton. I'm wondering if anybody has used an Eaton or Whipple and if they will fit?

A Positive Displacement type system like the 2003/04 Mustang Terminator will not fit without EXTENSIVE modifications.

It can be done and over 600 HP is easily achieved. Plan on spend almost enough to buy a 2nd Mangusta:

Depending on how much boost you plan to run, you should replace the pistons and rods with good quality Forged ones so they can hold up the new HP. I'd recommend upgrading the Trans to a Tremec T-56, a Mcloud clutch, return type fuel system. The front Cross member will obstruct the pulley drive system for the supercharger so a new one would need to be fabricated. Additionally the frame will need to be modified to fit the alternator...unless you can place it someplace else.

My advice is to go with a centrifugal type supercharger such as a Paxton or Vortex as that has been fit in with much less modification. Keep the boost fairly mellow and push the HP up to maybe 450 and you won't need to go with a forged rotating assembly.

We are in possession of the BrentMcD Mangusta and as he stated there are some items that need to be taken into consideration when supercharging a Qvale. One of the things you need to address is the space the alternator will take up next to the frame and with that we designed a built new adjustable A arms. We also changed out the polyurethane mounts for heim joints, this will give a more solid feeling and gain an extra 1.5 to 2" in the engine bay next to alternators new location, bottom left of the motor.

In this case the crossmember needed to be modified in order to clear the oil pan. The previous shop did what at best could be considered amateur work. This was not going to be acceptable thus we made a new one.
