Basically, use the sump, oil pickup and manifolds from your Sierras F10a and it should be good to go. :)

From the looks of the photos the 'charger is going to be all over the steering shaft, chassis etc once it's stood up vertical.

In any case, I don't think this is a really viable supercharger installation - I'd suggest despite undoubtedly tipping money at the motor, the hard part still hasn't been done - it has't been sorted. 10PSI of pressure drop though the carby?

For what the owner is chasing for this motor you could swap in a G16, maybe even EFI if you were good at scrounging from pull-it-yourself wreckers. It would be less hassle than trying to get that combination sorted.

i had the same thoughts bout where the supercharger will end up. i know there is the option of finding a g16b or using all the running gear from blue zook when i eventually get round to turning that into a buggy, i was looking at it because it doesnt require any changes to the mounts on the chassis and it will be half original lol
