I have a 1991 231 cid V6 in my 1986 fwd olds 98. I was wondering if it would be possible to take a supercharger from a 1992 and retro fit it to my engine and have it work with my 1986 computer that is hooked up to the engine.

Whether it's practical for you depends on your budget and experience level.

FWIW: NOS is much less expensive and your engine would last longer.

why not swapping a 3800 supercharged and the computer in place of your 3.8. might be more money to do it but it would less of a headache. plus adapting a SC would no doubt require you to upgrade vital engine parts like, pistons, injectors, cam, and maybe the heads and so on.... just to compensate for the added boost. otherwise u could kill your engine.
