    Hey guys, I'm in the process of building an M112 setup from a Ford Lightning on my 2001 4.2. So far I have the M112, M112 plenum, Lightning throttle body, Lightning intake and MAF housing, boost gauge and pod mount, 39# Cobra injectors, and a mock up of the lower intake manifold adapter plate.

    I still need to get the adapter plate made out of aluminum, a 255lph fuel pump, serpentine belt routing, under drive pullies, and a cutstom dyno tune.
    I'll be updating until its all finished! Any questions or comment are welcome! :waytogo:

    I got the supercharger, plenum, throttle body, intake, maf hosuing, boost gauge and pod, and a few other little odds and ends from a guy on v6f150.com that began the build. I got it all for 400 + shipping
