Guest Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 You don't "make" a suppercharger, you make the mounting or "drive" for one. The manifold is the hard part, but you you can modify a carburator intake to mount a blower.

Guest Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 It would be a good idea to decide which type of supercharger you want for your needs. That "Dinosaur" Buick is using centrifugal sc's. The kind you see sticking out of car hoods is known as a Roots type sc. There are other Roots type sc's that don't stick out of the hood as well. Search the web for info, it can get you started.
