Default ls1 supercharger????

I have a 1998 LS1 5.7.... I want to know if I could use a supercharer from a truck 5.3 or 6.0 which ever truck has this type of supercharger on it.... Not worried about hood clearance....

That's not factory.. you wouldn't be able to have a hood probably.

You need to look into specific fbody blowers.. procharger and vortec are two main.

You can swap Intakes.. I know a procharger for a vette and fbody same year will not work.

I would imagine it would but someone more informed needs to chime in.

Yes it will bolt up. You could probably fit a whipple.
