Well... A V8 swap is cheaper than supercharging a L36... Why?

You need...

Fuel Rails
Injectors
Fuel Pump
Low intake mani
Custom TB placement
Cowl adjustment
Heads from an L67
Tuning

There's a lot more little stuff... It all seems simple. But take all those parts, then add the labor? You're looking at 4 grand... Go buy an Lt1 car instead =P

Buy a SS or Z28, or if you want to do a swap, try a junkyard or newspaper for used engine.

Ok guys Im sorry but some of your info is wrong also, namely, you dont have to modify the cowl. The most major mods are the coils need to move, the supercharger needs a 180* bend in the intake, if yours is drive by wire then your t/b wont work either. Its possible, but you absolutley need to know exactly what you are doing, and judging from the fact you bought an m90 for 110$ and then wanna just throw it on, you dont.

Unless you mill off the whole top of the supercharger, you have to modify your cowl
