I am pretty sure the only superchargers for LT1s fbodies are centrifugal style ones.

He could always get some SBC heads converted to reverse flow cooling. Then he can run any positive displacement supercharger made for a SBC. It would require some extensive modification to the cowl and an aftermarket hood to fit. But all that seems like a lot of work compaired to just bolting on a Procharger.

If you dont like centrifugal ones, then look for a twin screw.

Kenne bell and whipple make them.
