    Default 3.8 camaro super charged

    does any one know anything about a 3.8 camaro being supercharged and is it possible to put a supercharger from a buick, or Grand prix on it? or what all does it take?

    If it's not the 3.8 turbo from a Regal/GNX it's no good imo. The 3800 series engine with the Eaton M90 is a slow piece. You get better power with a 350.

    Bozzio for president.

    I know there's a video of a forced induction v6 camaro with over 600hp. But I can't find it.
    Head on over to z28.com and ask.

    im pretty sure it would be more expensive and time to do that then just swap in a LT1 or LS1

    Either way you are in for a lot of work. Replacing the trans, rear end, etc. Get an LT1, they are cheap and you could build out a 383 for close to $6k from what I've been hearing.

    Contact Super Six Motorsports. Located in Macon. They did my first 4.0 engine and they work with plenty of other V6's.

    just a knock off so I can mock up my kit then I will save up for a larger one down the road. It's a T70 and I dont remember the A/R specs right now.
