Turbo or S/C on LT1 in thirdgen?
Are there any setups out there for turbos or Superchargers that'll work on an LT1 in my '88 T/A??

Im pretty sure most of them will since there iswaaaaaaaaaaay more room in the engine bay then a 4th gen. Not like you would have to worry about fitting them in there.

I heard something about the ones designed for 4th gen F-Bodies interferring with the gearbox. Is there any way a roots style S'Charger would work on an LT1? I've seen Magnacharger make one for the LS1, but not LT1??

You’ll have to either adapt a 3rd gen f-body setup (basically work out the pulley/belt/accessory issue and the TB inlet), or an LT1 vette setup comes pretty close to fitting with only minor modifications (well, plumbing is an issue, well, I’ve helped a friend do it with the ATI setup).
