This guy... even though it's got a small bonnent buldge,

http://gallery.oldholden.com/BlownEK/

It could be done with a little research, CRS used to do a little toyota blower (suited for a 2L however really not a great option IMHO or commodore motors in HX utes :D ) but that was mouting charger and carby on the drivers side and piping over the motor to a 4 Brl manifold.

same thing could be done, just need to find a blower suited to the motor and then see if you can ake it work!
