    I made a pun!
    Well anyways, I have the chance to buy a supercharger off of a Thunderbird SuperCoupe.
    Now for the question:
    Will it fit on a GTP intake manifold?
    (I'm slowly working on a top-swap)
    Signatures suck!

    Im gonna say no. Even if it did, the inlet is not in the same place as the M90 on the L67.

    yeah, fish is right. it won't fit. i'm pretty sure that the intake part is different as well.

    if you look on ebay you can see them usually

    Not only will it not fit, but it is also an unbelievable piece of crap.
    Basically, the only thing it has in common with ours is the displacement.
    The intake pattern is completely different. It draws in at the rear, outputs out the TOP, routes air to an intercooler, then to a LIM plate under the charger. Completely different, completely incompatible, and it's also an older, less efficient rotor design.

    Well then, expect to see a really cool-looking lamp from me in the future.

    Ed morad can set you up with all the hard parts for a top swap. Iirc he charges roughly $1000 for all the hard parts minus gaskets.
