    The intake side would look problematic. But I think cutting through the firewall would not be that bad. It's been done already on a V6 and V8 4th gen. F-body.

    I'll look for those pics and post again. I had it saved on my favorites before my computer got infected with the virus.

      I think I would do it if I didn't have to cut anything. Hell, I would probably do it anyway. How much is it for for one of those blowers?

        That blower resolves the firewall problem but there is still some cowl clearance problems from what i have heared. Also you will still need the lower intake and heads from an l67.

          there is more involved with that than just clearancing the cowl. T-Punk is right about the L67 heads too. you would need a fuel rail as well as the injectors. pricey project.

              Well here is something different, I know this is for a ls1, but its an idea, the supercharger is mounted backwards. It looks pretty simple, maybe.

                the L67 top end is different than L36. you will see. I don't have sites on hand to paste here...but...

                the injectors mount IN the heads of and L67 not in the intake....

                i will stop there...i think it is enough.

                people with L36 grand prix's often find out the hard way that they just can't 'bolt on' an OEM style supercharger to their $4000 used car.

                there was a dude in one of the forums recently that just bought a nearly brand new but wrecked L67 car. He was trying to decide what to do with it...he might be parting it out.

                for all the effort of rounding the proper parts to mate up with that australian supercharger i would think the price of the ATI procharger kit and a 10 pound pulley would be much easier and possibly cheaper. I am sure even a new rksport kit would be cheaper.

                good luck though. FI is fun.
