    Well the motor was advertised as a '99. Do you think that it's a '97?

    I assume that you mean to put the supercharger from the original motor onto this new motor, correct? That is what I was thinking I was going to do unless there was some reason I should not.

    they must have got the years wrong.

    97 grand prixs were the only year with that vacuum line set up.

    and yeah, take the other blower and slap it on this motor and run the vacuum lines like they were in the first place.

    it'll cost another 20 bucks to do with needing a supercharger gasket and orings for the injectors but thats no big deal.

    I already bought all new gaskets for the motor on the advice of another member. So I will be changing all of them.

    So if I put my blower and TB on I should be good with my current PCM on my '99?

    I hope that all the gaskets are the same from the '97 to the '99. Do you know if they are?

    Head gaskets
    TB
    LIM
    supercharger gasket
    VC's
    Water pump
    Timing chain cover
    Rear main oil seal
    exhaust manifolds

    yup all the those gaskets are the same.

    the pcm is fine aswell.

    just swap the blowers and change the gaskets and you will be good to go.

    Also, you must re-use the old throttle body and sensors too, so swap that with the blower.

    awesome, thanks for the help.

    I went through my rock auto order and checked everything against a 97 and as you said it all matched. The only item that I could not seem to match was the thrmostat. I ordered an ACdelco 131120 but I could not find that number for the 97.
