Too much effort if you ask me.

To answer your question tough. Youll need all the appropriate wiring and ecu seeing as though your now putting in a completely new engine.

Supercharged ecotects are everyhwere on this site. A quick search should yeild some results for you to "drool" over i suppose.

lol. so

step 1. cut off top of manifold
step 2. weld on square bore base plate
step 3. pray it works
step 4. go get a new manifold.

sound about right?

[bradv6k]

yeah and ya gotta weld up the injector plug holes and put a plate on the throttle body back off manifold

[ari666]

you know why it doesnt work?

[bradv6k]

my vn v6 worked but i just couldnt tune the carby properly

Don't bother supercharging an ecotec. Just buy a L67 supercharged V6. Far easier and a much better engine built for boost. The only common part of an ecotec and a L67 is the block.

no i brought a low km series 1 vn engine has cam and worked t700 auto now im thinking of custom making twin throttles on top of manifold with 2 pod filters sticking out the bonnet and keeping a dummy throttle body with no butterfly and plumming up my sc14 supercharger how well do u think this will work or will i have problems with too much air whats ya oppinions
