What are you running for injectors? What are you going to run for a fuel pump?

Looks like you've pretty much got this completely figured out. Can't wait to see it finished.

How much do you have in all this if you don't mind me asking?

A little over 2,000 and my dyno tune will be around 400. I was contemplating selling my truck and buying a V8 for some more power but when its all said an done I'm pretty sure I'll have spend less money doing this, I'll make more power than a V8, and I'll still have my truck cause its sentimental

I've got a 4.2L and have contemplated doing this mod, i've heard of it but till now haven't ever seen it done. Any chance you wrote down the specs for your adapter plate? If you get the results you desire i might be inclined to do it to my baby as well
(and being that its my only vehicle the less time it spends down the better)

Is this system intercooled? I mean it doesn't look like you've provided any room under the blower for the air to water IC that I would highly recommend you have. The Lightning(and Cobra's) M112 are nicknamed the "Heaton". They produce a ton of heat, and anyone that knows boosted engines will tell you heat is the number 1 killer of engines.

BTW, anyone else wanting to throw an M112 onto their 4.2 engine, SuperSix Motorsports sells an adapter kit you can use to bolt a 03/04 Cobra blower onto your motor.
