Default Can my 04 GT use this Vortech?

So i found a v-1 s-trim for a good deal but im curious as to why it's facing the opposite way then i expected it to be. The guy was planning on putting it on a 98 gt but I have the 02-04 bracket for my gt setup so is this headunit going to work for my setup?

I'm going with a CXRacing Intercooler setup too.

Ha I had inquired about the same head unit.

But I think it's for the Foxbodys and the impeller shaft spins clockwise. Set ups for the newer Mustangs spin counterclockwise Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Sadly it will not work. Here you go tho. This is my build. corral.net and SVT forums are your friend here..

Anderson Power Pipe--150.00---Corral.net
3.48 pulley--40.00---Corral.net

Tial Bov---220.00--JDsperformance
CX Rcing Intercooler (Complete kit)--210.00-- CX Racing (Ebay)
Seimens 42lb injectors--210.00--CorraL.net
HPX 05 Slot Maf--175.00--Kerns found this one for me..
Vortech mounting bracket--50.00-- Member of MF
Vortech mounting bracket hardware kit--95.00--superchargersonline

Oil Feed Drain--24.00-- Vortech

Didn't quite reach the $1500.00 Supercharger build but I think I did pretty good. Could have even been cheaper if I hadn't bought the Power Pipe, Tial Bov and went with smaller injectors. Any questions guys let me know..

yeah that one wont work. youre gonna want a counterclockwise rotation with a straight discharge, you can always get the serial number off the unit and call vortech and they can give u all the info and tell you if its ever been sent in for service or an upgrade etc. just for future reference
