I bought a blower off of a GTP and the snout seems to be shorter than the other ones ive seen. It this just a variation of it or what? IT looks like the length will still work so im stumped. i dont want to start my top swap without knowing i have the correct S/C

pic?
08-09-2009
yeah take a pic of it...you might have gotten a M62 Series 1 blower by mistake...
Does it look like...

Because for a basic top swap you need the second pic as the first one isn't compatible...and the last one is a Gen V and you'll need some adapters to get it to work.

Just based off his description, I think he might have gotten the blower from a series 1 L67. Either that, or he got a T-bird M90.

Yeah but wasn't that a gen III M90 with a shorter snout?Originally Posted by whitelightnin04MC

Series 1 got an m62 and the 3800 didn't utilize the m90 until series 2.
And if you're referring to the T-bird m90, yes it was a genIII with a shorter snout. It still wouldn't work because the inlet and outlet on the t-bird version are completely different.

Oh I know that...I meant on the T-Birds...didn't they use the M90 from day one back in '89? It was basically a Generation III M90 Blower with a shorter snout and smaller pulley right?
08-09-2009
Yeah, but the inlet and outlet is totally different on the t-bird m90. Probably to accommodate for the RWD drivetrain setup.

so the blower from a series one l67 wont work for my top swap? i have a 1999 l36
08-09-2009
no, a seriesI blower will not work.
08-09-2009

08-09-2009
Take a damned picture of it already and post it. Did you look at the pics I posted earlier in the thread? Did it look like any of those?
08-09-2009

08-09-2009

what vehicles did these come on originally?

1991-1995:
- Buick Park Avenue Ultra
1992-1995:
- Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight LS (opt), LSS (opt)
- Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight (opt)
- Pontiac Bonneville SLE (opt. SC package), SSE (opt) & SSEi
1995 Only:
- Buick Riviera(Opt)
That's basically a copy paste from the wiki article. Its a great article to learn the history of our engines.

another question i have is since the supercharger uses its own belt that means i need a different crank pulley correct? is this why people just swap out the harminic balancer from an l67
08-10-2009
Yes. If you're adding the supercharger to a 3800 that didn't previously have one you need to swap the harmonic balancer (crank pulley) for the one from an L67.
