Default GT500 supercharger onto 4.6L 3-V ???

I have the opportunity to buy a GT500 supercharger for a good price with only 4K miles on it. I have an 07 Saleen 3-V with the 4.6L & need to know if the swap can be accomplished. Anyone have an idea? I don't know if the valleys are different size or if there are any kits made to modify the mounting surfaces.
HELP!!

The GT500 Supercharger is routinely available cheap on ebay because its difficult to fit to other engines. The 5.4L GT500 has a different deck height and a totally different head design. The Magnacharger Intake might work and the Intake from a 2300 TVS Kit (like Roush) for the 4.6L might work. You would have to call and ask them. however dont be suprised if those are pretty pricey parts. In the end unless you can do some fabrication I doubt you can save much money over a ready made kit.

PS Most likely the supercharger you are looking at doesnt include the manifold or the in manifold heat exchanger anyway as the bigger blower the GT500 Owners swap on retain these parts.
