I was wondering the same thing, so in a vs all you do is change the memcal and drop the supercharged engine in place of the stock v6 ?

And wiring tweaks and you need to mirror balance the flex plate to the new flywheel if manual and if auto you change the torque converter

I dropped a l67 in my vs 2 months ago it's a straight swap. Make sure you have motor, box, loom, ecu/memcal, air induction tube, top radiator hose, throttle cable as it longer. I found it easier to take the supercharger off to get the engine and box in have a lot more room and loosen the engine mounts a bit to sit it in easy other wise you will get one engine mount in and the other side will be out a fair bit.
