Jegs and Summit both sell supercharger kits for the SBC. Figure a budget or $4-5K depending on what you opt for going with a small displacement and double that for the large displacement units.

not recommended on the stock engine as it is ill equipped to tolerate the additional power and heat. It will surely fit and run for a while, and then things will begin to fail.
