Supercharging? Is there an off the shelf solution for our engines? You're
making my mouth water.
FWIW, my GT with low compression Olds 215 runs with most stock mustangs and
Cobras.

?I happen to like the lower cost of regular fuel. So am quite
?happy leaving the perfectly good condition stock pistons and
?stock bore in my 3.5L alone.

?From what I've seen so far it seems to be pretty easy to build
?a docile, torquey 3.5L engine into a gas guzzling,
?temperamental, overheating monster. Easy, but not cheap.
?
?Course, once I get the car built and I get smoked by Honda
?Civics, I'll probably change my tune.
?
?But then there is always Fuel Injection and Supercharging.
