You should be able to find a supercharger with no problem. Check out Jegs.com, Summitracing.com, LS1speed.com, flp2win.com, and many of the sponsors on the various f-body boards. You can also check out MFBA.ORG and you'll get a response from there. It's mainly a Chicago board, but with all of the action out here someone will help you out. Besides, I think that GM High Tech Performance magazine did an article about a LT1 turbo build up, but mentioned that there were extensive modifications to the hood and its hinges / latches that needed modification. Hope that helps.
