Chevy Conversion
Mason,
There is really no need to modify the hood if you don't want to. Either carb or electronic FI will. It does sometimes take a little imagination to connect a fresh air inlet, however; these are also available. Just saw a show on one of the Hot Rod channels which showed the new low profile supercharger with inter-coolers from Edelbrock. Pretty slick, I may give one a try in the near future. It's a complete package and looks to be a natural with well over 500 foot pounds of torque. Just bolt on and go!
It is also very possible to make the torque tube adapter etc. if you have access to machine tools yourself. The parts are actually pretty simple. I did just that, most of these things were not available commercially until just recent years, let alone twenty. The only small pain was the oil pan, later I went to dry sump and eliminated that problem.
Hope you go ahead, you won't be sorry and will save many thousands of dollars compared to 928 parts, and get much more reliable power.
