No, only the rarely-seen superdupercharger will work for the 3.8.. and if it's carbed, you need the deluxe model..

(everyone else is gonna do it, so I figured I might as well join in)

you could always do a blow through turbo setup

You can hide a turbo on just about any car, but if you turbo the 3.8 then you'll be in for a lot of head gasket replacements.  Or you can swap in a SC'd 3.8 from a T-bird Super Coupe.

Personally, I think he should get one of those trick electric superchargers...
Those are so neat.

A super will fit fine. If it will fit under a 5.0, I dont see why it wouldnt for 3.8. However, I doubt it would be worth the time and money.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
