    Default L67 Supercharger bolt onto VN?

    Hey Guys,

    Was just wondering if a L67 Supercharger will bolt right onto a VN Buick?

    Thanks

    Could it bolt onto a Ecotech?

    What are some of the things that could not make it possible?

    l67 onto ecotec needs:

    l67 heads or injector holes drilled into stock heads
    l67 manifold
    l67 charger

    l67 onto vn needs

    custom manifold modified to have the l67 bolted to it, and take injectors still. this is doable, i have seen it done. lots of work, just buy a cheap l67 motor and drop straight in.

    I know that L67 and ecotec heads are different, but do you know why the injectors are the heads? Would there be any major problems if you just used the stock ecotec heads?

    because the ecotec block is so narrow, the l67 doesnt fit with injectors in the manifold. so they opted to put the injectors in the head.

    if that manifold pictured IS the manifold theyre selling, its NOT a m90 manifold. its a standard us l36 manifold, which is the lower part of their banana manifold.

    Yeah, my Dads PC sucks.

    I still don't quite get it. What do the injectors interfere with?

    the supercharger. the m90 is too wide to fit injectors in the manifold.

    best pic i could find to show why
