Modifying a M90 supercharger?

I've got this supercharged 3800 series II engine out of my Bonneville just sitting here. I got to thinking today if it would be possible to modify it to work on my 300?



As you can see its designed to be mounted on the intake manifold. I thought I could build an adapter to bolt to where the manifold would be, then into a pipe running to the carb.

I don't remember exactly how much boost these chargers make but I believe it to be about 6psi.

- Is this possible?

- Would having an adapter into a pipe further increase boost? (I don't want to have too much.)

- What CFM do you think would be necessary to support around 6psi boost?

Ok then can someone recommend a different forum where someone may be knowledgeable on this? Sorry I'm not asking about an oil change.
