'93 Buick Supercharger

[Wicked98Six]

I have a friend who's company bought a supercharged 93 buick and parted it out. The engine in that Buick was a 3.8 liter v6. He now has the supercharger, intake manifold, vacuum lines, etc and will sell them to me for 100 bucks. I figure for 100 bucks I can do quit a bit of fabrication to make it fit. Does anyone know if it is possible? My car is a 98 camaro, M5.

It is possible, but word out on the street it will run you about 5 grand to make it work. There is a lot of custom work that needs to be done, If you do a search you may find more info. If I'm not mistaken that supercharger is a eaton m90, The same supercharger used on a Grand Prix GTP. Good luck to you & Welcome to the board

I heard that it doesn't clear the hood, but other than that what needs to be modified? And why would it cost 5 grand?

I think the firewall has to be cut as well
& there is alot of fabricating that needs to be done, not worth it imo. Just as well, If you want to give it a stab, I say go for it. You never know unless you try it for yourself.

If you had the entire engine it might be made to work, but NOT with just the SC. You need heads, pistons, crank just for the engine. The stock PCM will not work, nor the SC PCM. The hood and intake are nothing compared to everything else. BTW you don't need to cut the firewall.
