Question boosting doubt?

hello guys, what do you think about boostin an v8 engine something like 5.3L with an old supercharger from a v6 grandprix? would it be good enough to feed it out?

The m90 is too small for that.

definitely not. the cobra m112 is barely enough, but has been done with some decent success.

LOL, that would be something expensive, so this would be worthless...

I considered trying to do twin m90's on my oldsmobile motor that was in my truck before. Just to be different. But after realizing it was going to be more expensive and difficult than it was worth. turbo FTW, or centrifugal if you must go the belt driven route

if this supercharger is too small for this engine what would be the result in perfomance? just a pair of boost lbs? once i saw same charger going with a v8 engine and at first engine was going boosted but after 2 seconds lbs of boost were down and no more pressure present..
