Are you gonna put a new intake manifold on it? The blowout prone kegger probably wouldn't like boost.

The kenn bell should replace the intake manifold. The far right spot on the aluminum piece with the oval hole and four bolt holes should be where the throttle body mounts. One thing to check is the neck with the pulley. There's a bolt inside the neck that hold the gears in place that has a tendency to loosen up with multiple installs. It ends up backing out and not engaging the gears. They rely on position and friction. Easy fix. Make sure Ti keep every thing clean and install a good catch can for pcv oil blow by.

Nice!

^^ Gotcha. I don't know much about superchargers beyond how they work and what they do to get their results.

I don't know if you got the install instructions with the unit, but if you didn't contact Kenn bell. Their instructions are very step by step and easy to follow. We used then on the install for my neighbors charger srt8. The only problem we tsb into was that neck bolt issue. Oh, and when my neighbor left a plastic glove in the air intake tube that got sucked into the throttle body. That was scary.
