In and of itself, the supercharger kit isn't too intimidating. It's the mods to the fuel system, carb, cooling system, etc. that start to make the project seem like overkill.

After just having done a turbo conversion to my late model thing (Holden version of the Pontiac G8), if the supporting mods seem overwhelming I wouldn’t go down this path and just keep it naturally aspirated. Most of the work is the mods to keep it alive, not just adding the air pump, even in LS world.
