Last night at the track we met a guy (sorry bud, dont remember your name :o ) who was very interested in the Trilogy S/C for his Mach 1. If you out there, I dug up this response from Jerry Barnes, the owner of Trilogy International:




Anything is possible. Our design was made to keep the supercharger within the packaging of the existing hood line. Many customers did not want to go to the expense of replacing the hood, so that was a key goal in our design. We have had numerous Mustang Mach I owners ask if our S/C will work on their cars. The answer is yes, but several modifications would have to be made and the design, engineering and tooling cost would be prohibitive given the number of units that would be sold. So it is not financially feasible for the development work to be done. "One Off" designs are always possible, but that would have to be done by the person wanting that configuration.

Thanks

Jerry

That was said about 1.5 years ago. Anything change on this Jerry? What specific changes would have to be made? Obviously the shaker scoop would be an issue, but what else?

If thier was a way to incorporate the hood scoop to bring cold air to the blower.
That would be sweet.

I'd toss the scoop if I could have the blower :D

A few guys have swapped in either 03 cobra motors or the 03 cobra blower setup and have been able to keep the stock shaker functional.
