There is that guy with the SC'd wagon, using one of our pt/abh motors for
it.  A supercharger setup with some custom fabrication would be amazing on
these cars, I believe.  A cheap SC from anything from a S/C Thunderbird to a
Ford Mustang Cobra/Ford Lighting V8 would be ideal.  I would personally look
at the units of the lightning If I were to do it.

If you ran about 5-7psi, or about 10 with methanol, you would be fine
without an intercooler, I'd bet, saving you a lot of piping.

Still, there is the issue of needing a standalone, you could maybe limp by
with a good chip burner, FMU, adjustable FPR, and other band-aids, but you'd
blow it up.  On a good tune and conservative boost you'd be alright.

I should look at the Stock bottom end and so some analysis on it some day.

Hey, If anyone has a block that is toast or something with good rods, I'd be
glad to take them and do a grain structure analysis, composition test, and
crush them as well.  would give good info.
