doubtful here, VG33ERGazelle? swapped a VG33ER in to his S12.  Check out www.z31performance.com, that is where you're going to find more VG30E performance oriented threads.

There was another member who got an M90 mounted on his KA but I don't think it ever ran.  A quick search will show you what is available here.  Otherwise you'll need to follow Silverton's link.

Not on the A/C pump side but should give you an idea of what can be done.

That is a roots style blower.  they're the most commonly used supercharger as they require little to no maintenance internally.

Intake looks about the right height to me.

my buddy was saying i can have this powerdyne just like this...http://www.chevyhiperformance.com/techarticles/49378_superchargers_blowers_info/photo_08.html

I have never used a powerdyne but I have worked with several other centrifugal superchargers.  They won't give you the low end advantage that makes twin-screw style blowers so popular but you will still love the results if you can get it done right.

It is from an slk, no intake spacer, and the rad is a unit from be cool. Its a 4 core dragster rad I could probably find the part number if you wanted to get one.

if the radiator doesnt need any modding i would love the part number

Part number 60100. Made by Be Cool. I had to make adapter fittings to attach the hoses and bend a couple brackets to mount it but it fits real nice. Is narrow enough to run intercooler piping around it for a front mount.
