Has anyone tried to mount an M112 from a lightning on a v10? I have a 2003 F350 and a complete supercharger setup from a 2001 Lightning. Just wondering if anyone had any luck with this setup Thanks, Rob

 

Seems like the intake manifold would be different with the extra runners. Have you tried to test fit the SC?

 

You might give someone like innovative a call to research tuning needs, etc....

would think there's a FEW considerations to doing that

but it has been done : http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/...p?gik=14&cat=1

that would SOUND outstanding !!!!!!!!!

my nephew has a 600+hp prepared Lightning - unreal whine when he GOES

keep us posted !

 

Wouldn't it also require injectors and a bigger fuel pump to be able to handle that supercharger?

 

I have the injectors from the lightning intake, just need 2 more, and I would replace the fuel pump, I have to pull one of the heads off already, one spark plug keeps popping out. Thats when I'll pull the supercharger, and cooler off the intake. and see if it will line up. Just wondered if anyone ventured down this road.

 

Are you talking about just bolting it on the v10 manifold?

 

All ya need is some stock & a nice TIG...

Or one of these...


Ford 1999-2004 6.8L/V10/2 Valve Supercharger
Whipple Industries
Whipple Industries, the leader in supercharging performance with industry leading technology, developed this bolt-on system for optimum performance and reliability unmatched by any competitor. With the Whipple twin-screw supercharger, boost is instant allowing for more low-end torque and incredible throttle response. Power from idle to redline, a unique feature only available to the Whipple Charger. The 6.8L SC system creates incredible low and mid range torque, great for all towing conditions.

With incredible reliability and fuel economy in mind, Whipple implemented a specially designed air-bypass system that allows the SC to only take approx. 1hp to operate under cruising conditions. This equates into incredible fuel mileage and unsurpassed reliability, simply years ahead of the competition. This is only possible because of Whipple’s revolutionary interface computer system that works with the stock CPU taking care of all the necessary engine functions to remain emissions legal and maintain proper operation in all conditions. The interface system constantly monitors the oxygen sensor and knock system outputs for OEM like reliability and safe operation. If a problem comes about, the “active boost control” system will decrease boost instantly (a Whipple exclusive) so the engine acts as if it were naturally aspirated, all but eliminating undue harm to the engine. Each system offers up to 50% increase in power, while still maintaining unsurpassed reliability and low noise levels. No one in the world combines so much quality and technology into a complete bolt on and simple to install supercharger system then Whipple Superchargers. While others claim, Whipple delivers!

Are these SCs still available? I searched their website to no avail. Do you have any costs, anticipated number of HP, Torque, and fuel economy increases?

 

Noa,

I don't believe the whipples are available for the 6.8 anymore.

FYI:
With a Banks PowerPack (no ottomind), Banks Ram Air and whipple (Lysholm 2300) you can expect around 435 to 450 HP with 94 octane fuel. Not sure about the torque gains. I have not had the Truck on a dyno. The aprox HP I get from a ScanGaugeII I have hooked up.

You can get them on ebay from time to time..Keep lookin.

 

So did you do it?
