thats what i was gonna say, doesn't mean its the SAME S/C, same tune, same fuel, same pulley etc.

I saw multiple SC 5.4s last weekend, multiple ones were 900+ and one in an all aluminum body cobra was 700.

It's not even the same supercharger. The S/S Mustang has a Kenne Bell blower, the one on the fiddy is definitely not a Kenne Bell. Maybe an Eaton or something.

did ford forget that trucks are available in other cab styles besides a crew cab? your supercharged F-150 doesnt need car seats and soccer ***** in the back. this truck needs to be a reg cab, 6.2, 5/6 speed without the retarded fender vents and bed cover vent. just clean, plain, fast

looks very different, I believe the shelby mustang super snake makes 720hp though their is a vid I posted on your dream vehicle thread, it tells about the car. if that truck had that much power then cool beans, but still 500 or so hp is good, lol

Since i havent shared my opinion and i started the topic...i have mixed feelings. It is a great concept, but maybe not put together 100% correctly. Several things i would change. In no way does stuff that works and looks good on a car, look good on a truck (ie:hood scoop). yea i understand trying to make a twin of the Mustang super snake, but come on, it doesnt work at all. Transmissions. why are you so scared of putting in a manual transmission in a sport truck. you couldnt do it in a lightning, you couldnt do it in the saleens, the raptors or this. Do it. Could easily have more power. Wheels=sweet. options=sweet. Price=not sweet
