Red face No LS1 but have a Mach1

Hey new to the site. Dont have a Ls but my buddy on here (SPLATT) has a bad a$$ 02 firehawk. Love the Ls series was gonna try and get a Ls1 swaped somethin in the next few months, but its way cheaper for me to throw a blower on the mach. So thats whats gonna happen. Tons of great info on here (even for a ford guy). Lookin foward to hearing what some of you all have to say.

Can you put an eaton style blower on a Mach, due to the shaker hood?

But yes, KB's are wicked. It sounds like you're killing a baby

Welcome aboard, owned two Machs myself. 04 Screaming Yellow and 04 Azure Blue. Loved the Machs better than my 03 Cobra but wouldn't trade any of the three for my LS1. Once you get one you want go back!!!!

the blower will start as an eaton swap and hopefully pull a modest 450 ish. But after the motor gets forged it will be on like donkey kong as far as a blower. IMHO an eaton swap on a mach is an awesome idea if your going to forge it. It sets you up for TONS of blower options in the future, like a whipple or a KB, Also you can retain the shaker. It just turns ints an extra source of air to the top of the blower lol. I got pics somewhere lemme see if i can dig em up

Yeah everyone says that the LS1 is the way to go. like I said before was gonna buy somethin small with a LS1 in it. I would really like to have a Rx-7 with a Ls in it. But dont have 30k to spend right now. So i decided to put a eaton on her for now. It will be fun.
