OK, I worked part of today testing out how this blower is going to mount, its going to be a piece of cake except one major problem, the FUEL INJECTORS!!!!!! Damn, it shoudl still work but its gonna be tight, I have to cut some of the mounting holes from the blower case cause they are in the way of the injectors, physically there is enough room for the injectors but the fuel rail hits the blower case as I figured, so a custom rail is definately needed, that I will work on later. The good news is I can get the setup to work with ONE belt, using the mustang brackets, for more belt wrap a second idler pulley is needed but as you can see in the pics that will not be a problem, already figured that out. I can even get the stock blower shroud to work, not sure if I'll use it but woudl be cool. Imagine someone looking under my hood and seeing the blower and shroud, they would think, "WOW an 03 Cobra motor in a 94 stang, cool, hey wait, those valve covers are not DOHC covers, wait thats a V6!!!!!!!! " Anyways here are the pics of the mocked up setup so far.
comparison shot of the stock blower and 03 blower, I added the inlets on the stock blower for better reference of actual length, its a few inches longer. The cool thing is the blower sits only 2 inches taller then the stock SC blower body, but add the blower top and the cobra blower sits the SAME HEIGHT, only difference in height is the snout sits 2 inches higher, but as for the main body section its the same due to no blower top now.
here is a shot of the stock blower alone vs the 03 blower, man it looks small. The 03 blower is DAMN heavy too, makes the stock SC blower feel like a feather, literally.
here is a front shot of the blower sitting on the motor with mustang brakets. You can see the extra idler I have next to the AC compressor, its just a pulley sitting on a threaded rod but you get the idea. The belt is too short but it woudl also wrap around the alternator and PS pulley and crank shaft of course, but in the pic it doesn't.
here is the same shot with the blower shroud, kinda cool.
and a top view, looks way too damn clean, I can remove both valve covers without removing anything else. It looks cleaner in this shot cause there is no injectors or wiring harness but still gonna look pretty cool when done.
