Default 6-71 Blower

I ask this only because I have one of these at my disposal. Would a Wieland 6-71 Blower be compatable to an LS1? I know I would have to to the EFI, to carb mod and all and cut a nice hole in my hood, but is a 6-71 blower a bit of a dinosaur for these engines or what? I know it would look and sound kick a**. I just wonder if there is a way to do this. The blower was fitted on a 327 that got peuked.

No way you'll fit that in a 98 without windshield/firewall/etc... extensive modding.
Then you would need a custom intake manifold etc....
Maybe with a long body and moving the motor forward (I don't even know if that is possible)
Nothing can't be customised, but not what you would call a simple task.

Explain a long body, talking about a 82-92 model?? Also, I hear ya loud and clear with the major mods to the car, I was just wondering if it was mechanically possible with a LS1, being aluminum and a "mid block" and all.
