That setup is shown in a video on You Tube. The guy did a really good job fabricating the supercharger mounting and a drive system but I was never enthused about having a 70 cu in capacity supercharger on a 300 cu in engine. There would be boost but not real efficient use of the small supercharger. Way to go on a 4.9L would be with a properly sized turbo. Years back a guy from Canada by the name of Pete did this and the Fiero ran 12 sec 1/4 mile times which were excellent times for a Fiero.
If you have a 4.9L Cadillac swap, its already decent fast. With some head porting and a Delta cam, performance should be excellent.

Oh... that's a really sad example of a thread where all the Photobucket images disappeared, and when the original poster went through all the trouble to re-upload all the photos to PIP, they all disappeared as well when PFF's image server had a major issue (where 100,000 images were lost).

Yeah that’s what I was thinking, I was hoping someone would have something on this. I appreciate the replies.
