Good luck though. O and you really must get a new supercharger, there are rebuilt ones on ebay going for about 450-475 which would be much better than the 1500 from GM.

Its funny how before something is done it is classified as "impossible". I asked about a swap of an M90 onto a Series one a year or two ago and i was told there is no way. Now that someone has done it, it is classified as "illogical" or too expensive, or too much boost (is that possible?!?!?!)
Go with an M112. Imagine how fun it would be? And for the "too much boost" simply slap a bigger pulley on it until you want that extra power which will be available with much less KR due to the lower intake temps obtained by the m112 producing the same boost as a m62 but at a lower speed (less friction = less heat = denser air + less K.R.)
Haha i like that idea about boxing the old one, and rebuildling it then buying rockers and everything... Hmmm i think im going to be getting rockers soon

After hanging out with Randman for a couple days...Nothing is impossible. Give the guy some parts, some fiberglass or a sewing machine and you've got a new interior.
I'm scared now that he'* got the donor car.....scared...I'll just make sure there 3 feet between us when I'm helping wrench on that thing.
Hey Randy...Torches don't need electricity....

The problem isn't pushing more air at this point, it'* using what you have. Say you have 2 GTP'* same milage etc. Both slap on an intake, 3.4, pcm, and the other supporting mods. One guy has ported heads and exhaust headers, while the other one runs PEMs.
THe guy with heads/headers will have lower boost, because he'* flowing better, and making more power. 3800 heads aren't really designed for performance, they're designed for streetability, reliability, and old people... j/k
M62 isn't holding pack performance, I just wanna see someone open up a series I flow wise... Cams are a big part of this too. Realistically there are 2 cammed series I cars. One was sold for a Jr. Dragster, and Dr. Jay has a mild one if i'm not mistaken.

It'* fun to dream, but dreaming in a realistic manner would be cool. And slamming people for pointing out the obvious won't get you anywhere. If you want to be the first to do this, be my guest. I know very good and well what would be required to do this, and it'* not worth it for what I could do with the money it would cost, despite the fact that I'm quite a fabricator.
