Default 99 3.8 w/rod knock Rebuild a Supercharged or Turbocharged 3.8 ?

I sold my truck to this guy for cash and this 99 Camaro 3.8. The 3.8 has a mild rod knock at medium to high RPMs. So the engine has to be rebuilt. The car is nothing special, no PW etc. and a 5 speed. But I figure if I have to rebuild the engine I should turbo it or supercharge it. Even thought about putting in a Grand Nationsl engine and make a hot rod out of it. My question is: what is the easiest way to hot rod the 3.8,what does it take and where can I find the necessary instructions to do this project?

Thanks Tiquela

You may want to try FullthrottleV6.com. It's basically dedicated to V6s.

Although I'm sure you'll find some good information on here.
Musicman & Stan will be the two you'll want to talk to.
