Hey, Im new here. I bought an 03 Monte SS about a year and something ago. I have done some stereo work done to it and now i want to got fast. i just bought a rebuilt supercharger from an '97 SSEI. What all do i need to correctly run the supercharger. i heard u have to buy the right Intake Manifold and whatnot. If someone could help me out id highly appreciate it. im trying to learn more about my car lol.

Thanks

 

Go on Club GP, and search for "top swap".

You need pretty much the whole top end from a 3800 Series II SC. Supercharger, TB, LIM, fuel rails, vaccum lines, idler and tensioner pulleys, L67 balancer to run the SC, PCM flash...You'll need fluids like coolant and oil.

It's LOTS of work... and will cost you close to $1000. It's probably easier to do a L67 swap by picking up a used low mileage L67 block from a GTP, SC monte, or SC Impala, and just swapping, and then getting your PCM done. You'll also need the wiring harness from the L67.

Shoulda bought an '04 SC. :-)

Where did you pickup the '97 Bonnie SC from, and for how much?

 

I bought the SC on Ebay from this guy that rebuilds them for $250 w/out core charge.

 

I hope you didn't end up with the ones that aren't really rebuilt.. .there are a few scammers who sell M90s on teh eBay.

Mind PMing me the seller? I'll let you know soon afterwards...

 

Talk to Tim at ZZPerformance.com, as they can fix you right up. The good thing about putting a s/c on your n/a 3.8 is you have a higher compression ratio, and this conversion will give you more power than a stock L-67. Should be easy to get 300+hp from that conversion, with a CAI, u-bend delete, cold plugs, 180 t'stat, and a 3.4" pulley. Try to afford the front power log manifold, and a 3.3" pulley for even more hp. Talk to Tim.

Did the SSEI's run an M90? I thought they ran the M62 for awhile there.

 

1996 and prior were the M62.

 

Ahh. Couldn't remember if 97 was the final year or the starting of the M90.

 

about how much would this project cost, and whats a good place yo source most, or all the parts from??

Sorry, just interested in this thread and want to follow it up.
