Not mine, daily checking some sites and ran across this offer. There's going to be a lot of parts that are not needed I am sure of but this takes out all the hard work of going crazy searching.

Decent price!
Lotsa stuff included that's not needed/usable for an Eaton swap on a Marauder, but could be re-sold to recover a portion of the cost:
Pulley bridge bracket with tensioner and 2 idlers
timing cover new
timing cover bolts, studs and nuts ,(not necessary to mount Eaton SC drive system, will need gortch brackets for the MM)
timing cover tensioner with an idler plus 2 idlers[1 smooth ,1 ribbed idler
bolts for above tensioner and idlers (will need the tensioner and the smooth idler, but not the rest)
Lower supercharger pulley with cage and idler
Crank harmonic balancer new
Idler bracket with idler - it sits where alternators sit on N/A cars
oil cooler with adapter
Alternator
upper and lower alternator brackets
Bolts for alternator and brackets
Alternator pigtail connector
Coolant crossover pipes with new O rings and temp sensor new (could be modifed with some work, but better off going with a modified OEM Marauder COT)
supercharger inlet plenum with bolts and gasket
throttle body with bolts and gasket (OEM throttle body will work)
supercharger pulley cover
EGR valve with bolts (can use the stock EGR valve with some minor mods, or do an EGR delete)
EGR metal tube
Throttle cable new (can use the stock Marauder cable with some minor mods)
Cruise control cable new (can use the stock Marauder cable with some minor mods)
Black bracket with emission sensors , sits on the side of Eaton SC
power steering reservoir bracket with bolts
Radiator hoses
Anybody interested in an Eaton swap, this is about as close as you'll come to a "one stop shop" for the parts, and as mentioned, you can peddle the unecessary stuff to recover some of the initial cost.

Are you on the list that has done the Eaton swap on your ride ? Would you say it's better than the trilogy set up ? Or is the eaton set up better in the long run because part can still be found and made for it ?
Sorry to bug you with questions and also sorry if thus sounds dumb .
'God Speed Blues Brother'
Yep, I've got an Eaton swap on my car, and, no, not a dumb question at all.
I would say the Eaton swap is in no way better than the Trilogy, but it was definitely a lower cost alternative when Trilogys were still being offered. Now that Trilogy kits are no longer being sold, options for roots-type blowers are limited, so to a large extent, the "Eaton swap" is the only game in town. (Even if planning to install a Whipple or Kenne Bell, you've got to use some of the Cobra Eaton parts as a basis).
Actually, both the Cobra Eaton and the Trilogy blower head are M112s, but the Trilogy set up uses a different plenum design that allows driver's side air intake, which makes it a direct replacement for a NA set up. The Cobra Eaton is passenger side intake, which requires relocating the battery and some other peripheral components in the engine bay.
Also, the Trilogy was a complete kit, everything needed to convert from NA to S/C was included in the box, ready to bolt on; whereas the Eaton swap requires you to round up the used OEM Cobra parts, new OEM parts from Ford (if used ones can't be obtained), and aftermarket parts (such as the gortch brackets) as well as fabricate various other brackets and such. I found that part of the project to be a lot of fun, but for some folks, parts chasing is a PITA.
If they still offered Trilogys, and if I could afford one, I'd buy one in a heartbeat. That said, I love my Eaton swap, and don't regret going that route.
Bottom line: Whatever FI system is chosen, Can't Beat Boost!
