stockgp Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I'm pretty sure the guy posted up on this forum, and I'm trying to find the old thread and pictures. If you don't kniw or remember, the guy cut a hole in the top of a 3100 manifold and stuck an m90 blower on it. I'm wondering if its the same guy who made it into a car craft magazine I ran across the other day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I seem to remember someone on 60* doing that to a mpfi 3.1 way back in the day. Then there was the guy that made his own adapter for a m90 on a dohc. But 3100 I don't recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonpro03 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 There was a supercharger setup that was sold for 3400's back in the day. It didn't sit on the manifold but in front of the motor. [ATTACH=CONFIG]3054[/ATTACH] I also remember seeing a centrifugal setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stockgp Posted January 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Maybe it was a 3.1. I didn't think that plenum would be wide enough. This guy in car craft just rtvd the hell out of his. The article says its.a 93 grand am, but you can clearly see from the picture its a 95 and up cutty. Ill try to scan the article when I get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superchager was off an l67 I believe and dude just cut a hole in the plenum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psych0matt Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I dont mind that car that much. Lose the spoiler and windshield banners, throw a normal hood on I don't think it's that awful EDIT: after looking at more pics, especially the interior, yeah its pretty bad. At least most of it is reversible, and at least most of it is installed straight, although gaudy and ugly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slick Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 The only one I remember was the Beretta with the M90 and the hole in his hood. He actually made his a complete bolt on kit. Added an extra pulley, modified his upper plenum to either bolt on the M90, or bolt on a block off plate so he could go N/A. Don't quite remember the one in the Cutlass though.

mfewtrail Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) I remember a 60*V6 Cutlass that was gold in color and supercharged. I forget what all was done to it, but I believe it had some old school 60*V6 RWD parts on it(or a complete RWD engine) and it was using a distributor. EDIT: Here's the one I'm talking about. I reposted pictures of it about a year ago. Edited January 7, 2011 by mfewtrail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockgp Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 none of this is what i'm looking for. i've been too lazy to scan the article, but i found a link to the article: http://www.carcraft.com/eventcoverage/ccrp_0909_crasharama/photo_07.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonpro03 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) For gods sake CLEAN THAT DAMN CAR! I like how this is labeled Grand Am Supercharged when the car is obviously a cutlass http://www.carcraft.com/eventcoverage/ccrp_0909_crasharama/photo_06.html Edited January 10, 2011 by Jonpro03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
