3.8l EATON ON CARB 5.0


I want to run a 3.8L supercharger on my 302 that is carbed. Any one do this before. I see all the post with a fuel injected motor but nothing on a carb motor. Its a street car and im low on cash so I cant buy a kit. Any info?

i have heard alot of people talk about wanting to do it, but i have never seen any one do it, it would be hard to do on a fuel injection motor, but because your going carbed i dont know how you would do it because the 3.8l eaton is a fuel injection blower.

Yeah, you'd have a hard time bolting a carb to the throttle body opening.

I was going to mount it like the bbk kit did or tig up my own carb adapter and port the hell out of it.

your best bet is either a turbo with a blow through carb or a blower made for a carb.
