Default Roots type supercharger conversion parts list

If you were to build a car with an LS engine, and converted it to a roots type blower, what parts would you need to do a factory style conversion? More specifically if you wanted to try using the CTS-V setup on a truck style motor. I have seen plenty of CTS-V blowers for sale in the $700 range, and it did get me thinking what I can do if I had all the parts I needed. If it's way more expensive than a turbo, I'll probably pass for now. It would still be good to know what's needed if I came across someone selling a "complete kit."

I've seen quite a few blowers sell for short money and was wondering the same thing for my 07 Tahoe.

Change heads to rect port LS3/L92's. FEAD change to corvette spacing. LSA balancer and SC drive. LSA injectors, lid, 4 bolt TB, heat exchanger, IC pump, IC tank

For a truck, a LSA SC conversion will end up $3500-4000 by the end not counting upgrades

A used maggy kit is more cost effective and for the same money 2300 kits are common
