KB makes a great kit for the 2V Mustangs. I think it's the only roots/ screw kit you can put on that car without major labor. I agree with Michael that it's probably the best blower kit for a street car.
If you are planning to drag race more, or like a softer bottom end, any of the centrifugal kits work really well. I've heard good and bad on all the kits but Vortech seems to have a slight edge on head units. Beyond that it's a wash. They all come with everything you need to bolt the kits on.

Keene Bell - has lots of torque at the low end, above about 1500 RPM.
In 01 Ford raised the compression ratio in the 4.6 so keep the boost level down. Also the pistons are brittle and have been known to break, (how would I know?) so get it dyno-tuned by an expert. You can compensate for higher boost by cooling the charge with water/meth injection or an intercooler. I like the later since it's a passive device and has less chance for failure and it's less to worry about. I've got a standard air-air 2 core intercooler in my ATI P-1SC system and from my seat of the pants guess, I'd say in the cooler parts of the year around here I'm getting around 20-25 more horses, just from the cooler denser charge. It's self-contained oil needs to be replaced every
6K miles, but removing the head only takes me about ten minutes. I've been scaring old geezers with it for over seven years now.MotorsForum website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here.
