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

) 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!
Cheers
