Supercharger from a bonniville

Well my buddy got in an accident with his eraly 90's bonnie. Sad to say it was wrecked in the back so bad it could not be resurected. But the car was supercharged from the factory and he said he would give the SC to me for free if i could use it.

The SC is for the V6 that came in the bonnie. Would there be a reason i wouldnt be able to transfer it over to the carbed 350 that is going into my car next summer (stock l03 for now). What kind of extra tuning would i need to do to make it run correctly?

The rear bearings aren't sealed. Simple plain ol needle bearings. The gas will wash the grease out. Bob

How difficult would it be to swap in a sealed bearing? Is there an off-the-shelf one that could be used?

How difficult would it be to bolt it to a singleplane efi manifold, then bolt a TB on top of it?

Hood clearance would be interesting, but so would the mod.

i went and checked out the bonnie (sitting broke in his backyard). If i wanted to use it i would have to convert to a short style waer pump. I have all my accesories already so im not even going to bother. thanks though guys
