chevy 3.8 super charger.

Well I was just stopping by the local pick and pull, and I remembered that my freind mentoined that he needed some window trim. Turns out, not only did they have window trim for his cavilier, but it was also half off day. While I was walking around in the chevy's, i noticed something that looked like a super charger. Walked by, and it was!:D I picked it up for $31. I know it prolly wont work, but it looks an awful lot like those on the super coupes, and I am sure, if I cant get it to work, I will get some money off of it. Any who, pics will follow!!!!

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Pictures as promised.



here is the bolt pattern, it looks like it all bolts to a adaptar plate on the lower intake if I remember right. When I walked up to the counter with it, they asked me what it was, and I said one of those fancy air pumps.
*edit*

the units for the supercoupe are built to be run upside down, so theyre able to be intercooled
It's Gumby's fault.

I have looked into it alot, and it looks like it is the m-62, so it shouldnt be big enough to work with the 5.0's. If I were to throw it on, how would it perform.
