Buick (junkyard) Supercharger

Anyone ever get a junkyard supercharger running in their N/A? I see a lot of supercharged Buicks on the road and started thinking about it yesterday.
They (the superchargers) seem pretty self-contained and would require some mounting fabrication and intake modification.

Just wondering.

Hmm - the raw numbers are pretty close.
Designed for 6PSI at ~5K into 3.8L per 2 crank revs.
3/2 under drive to keep it from over revving.
The rotary displaces 2.6L per 2 shaft revs.
Hmmm. Maybe with an IC?

Still - sounds like a money pit.. (but fun)

Hey Bill! I'll split the price of the S/C if we can do it on your car!

BTW, Dan and I finished modding my TII. Boosting 10#+ now

I'm still conjuring a black S5 TII.
10#+: Cool - watch your A/F and I'll see you at the BBQ on the 24'th..
