Thread: M62 Swap...

First of all, don't laugh at me I know what I'm doing... kinda.



This is an M62 supercharger off a 2007 Cobalt SS...
I want to swap this blower on my Regal, in place of my GenV. Just roll with me on this one... I can figure out all the PVC/Vacuum issues on my own, I just need help with some sort of an adapter plate.

I've seen intercooler setups for an M112 swap where the intercooler case bolted to the lower manifold and then the blower bolted to the case. I need something like that I think but I'm not sure I want to use an intercooler...

The dimensions work out perfectly so long as the blower bolts down in the right location.

Any ideas?

I want to be different.

Thanks Bill but thats not the sort of adapter plate that I need.
I need to bolt the M62 specifically off the Cobalt SS to my lower manifold, unfortunately it doesn't just bolt right up

Look I'm going somewhere really neat with this whole thing... can we just overlook the obvious for a moment?

I'm going to make you eat those words I promise... but yes I need an adapter plate... now where to have one of those made...

Go buy a Cobra blower and be a man about it.

I plan on making a lot more power than an M112 is capable of making on a cam only L32.

All I need is an adapter plate and I can go over to the dyno.
When I'm all done with it my expectations are over 350whp without an intercooler or meth on 93 pump.

He obviously has a plan why are we busting his balls about it. Best of luck my friend. Cant wait to see what you have planned

You'll also need to determine the placement based on belt path. I assume you are looking to put the pulley in the same place as the M90 would land. So that'll determine a lot of the other stuff.

Good idea Bill. Yes the pulley is going to need to be in the same place. Since I can't use my LIM for mock ups because I need to drive my car... do you want some company after work? I have a few friends who deal with local machine shops that are looking into this further and at this point I just need a LIM to take measurements and what not.

Why don't you just PUUUUHHHHHLEEEEEEZE tell us your plan.
