I don't know if the intake from the 03 fits those heads but IIRC it should be a straight bolt up. Problem is your Marauder is at 10:1 compression and you'll only have a good 5-7psi of boost you can stuff in it before you start seeing the volumetric efficiency drop precipitously with each additional pound of boost pressure. You could do a 5.4 swap (yeah.. my favorite mod). It'll be WAY stronger than it is now and you can do it without a blower adding wear and tear to the bottom end.

The 5.4 swap on the marauder would be super killer. The extra tq is what he wants to move that big heavy ass bitch and that's where the 5.4 shines.
