If they make a kit specifically for the Ford Trucks, you won't need their kit....
You wouldn't need any of the fuel system parts, or any of the intercooler piping, maybe not even the intercooler. Probably not the blower belt, or idler pulleys.


All you need are the brackets. Make them out of 1/2" wood from the hardware store. When you're happy that everything lines up, get someone to cut up a 1/2" alum sheet, and turn up some spacers to bolt the bracket to your head/water pump/block.

Your intercooler piping needs to totally custom made anyway.

This is how my 1/2" alum brackets ended up. They don't flex, and I put the blower EXACTLY where it needed to be. I don't think you'd be lucky enough for any mass produced kit to fit in the first place.
