Default reverse rotation prochargers?

im trying to put a procharger on my ls1/240sx. its will have to be custom.

the question is:
1: the c5 and f-body units are standard rotation?

2: for them to work turned backwards (pulley facing forward) they would have to reverse rotation? i know this is a given but im asking anyways.

if 1 and 2 are right does that mean the procharger for the gto is called a reverse rotation unit? even though it meant to rotate that way?

i guess the point is, does procharger call a unit that is facing forward a standard rotation unit? and one that is facing backwards (pulley facing forward) a reverse rotation unit?

and is there a way to change the rotation? like a kit or something?

i want to put the unit where it is in the pics. i guess a gto d1-sc unit is my best bet but i just wanna know if i have other options and get the right unit.
also, is there a way to use this kind of belt on any procharger? looks like it wouldn't slip at all. i think the unit in the pic is a p600b.

F-body cars are reverse rotation. The GTO is standard.
