Question 63f-100 lighning question???

Hello im new to this forum so i wasnt sure where to post this thread.k i have a 63 f-100 unibody project. my question is, i was givin a new supercharger,lower and upper intake manifold for a 99ford lightning "still in box" and i purchased a 5.4 triton from the same year, I hear that the only difference between the stock 5.4 and the lightning is the super charger and engine displacement.
so before i put this all together does anyone know if anything else has to be modded ??? ive heard that i need low comp. pistons different spark plugs and a beefed up tranny any feedback would be great.. Oh btw this engine is goin in the unibody i plan on making a custom 63 lightning..thanks

Hey I have a similar project underway. The SC Lightning engine is a a little different but the displacement is the same. If I can help with questions PM me.
