Eaton M90 on a 89 LX?

For the money, time and the fact that you want to 'daily drive' this I think you need to go to @a91what build thread where he put an m90 on his car. It may change your mind.

Yes it will, the effort involved is huge. Everything is custom not one piece is made by a company. I had to make all of it myself.


Now you could look for a BBK instacharger kit that would make this doable for you.

Most people are happy with 330hp until they have 330hp.

There’s some good advice here. You can either invest hours and hours making parts fit to make an old, inefficient design work - or a day for a centrifugal kit. Personally I’d rather have my car to drive than piecing together a roots kit.

I built a custom blower assembly for a SBF.... used a blower from a jaguar xkr made an adapter plate and used a b&m blower lower that i drilled for injectors.. the rest is hand made.

The distributer in the back is really confusing me...

nope... those are coil packs, added a crank trigger and using cam sensor from explorer to drive the oil pump

It's incredibly hard to design and fabricate on a daily driver. An m90 really isn't worth that effort.
I am kinda surprised nobody made an m90 swap kit back in the day other than the instacharger.
I could see it being kinda fun to drive.
My Saleen Explorer 5.0 had an M90 and that was fun to drive with an auto and awd.
I had it off to be rebuilt and ported and the design was incredibly simple (for a supercharger setup, not simple as in I could make it, lol).
Was a rectangle funnel over the original gt40 lower and an elbow out back.
Throw in a bypass and a couple pulley's.
It was made by explorer express and dealer installed in the later made xp8's.
