Default what would it take to put an eaton cobra blower on an ls1

My friend has a ported eaton that he is getting ready to replace with a whipple, and said that i could have it for pretty cheap if i wanted it.... I seen someone on here before but a roots style blower on the camaro, and had to cut back the cowl some, but what else would it take for me to but the eaton on my ls1, right now the blower is setup for 16 lbs on boost on he's cobra, but what would that do for an ls1? Would it not even be worth trying to put it on my car do to me trying to have to mix and match ls1 parts with cobra parts? Let me know what you guys think since he's a couple weeks away from getting the whipple.....

Magnacharger, they make a complete kit for the LS1. The eaton blower is a giant heat sink anyhow. To run good boost levels you'd probably have to at a very minimal drop compression and go to a larger pulley than he has on his. IMHO, not worth it.
