MAybe I should get rid of it before I do something................CRAZY?!?!

I got a good supercharger and intercooler from a Chevy Cobalt......And Have been dreaming about my 65 D100 with the SC/. I have read through some topics but am at a loss. Heavy modifications no matter what, but I have an idea every year or two! Eaton m62.

What would you do???

Dumb idea #1: Run it off the driveshaft, blowing thru the carb

Dumb idea #2: Mount it to the A/C compressor bracket, belt drive it, blow it thru the carb.

Dumb idea #3: Mount it on the hood, mate it to a starter motor, hit it only when you want it Mad Max style

Dumb idea #4: Mount it to a mountain bike, hang the mountain bike tire out the window to the ground when you want it to kick in.

Dumb idea #5: Mount it on top of the air cleaner. Mount a propeller to the front of it. The faster you drive, the faster it spins.

I'm spent.

Dumb idea #1: Run it off the driveshaft, blowing thru the carb
(Thus requiring a total overhaul of the brake system. cuz the faster the driveshaft turns, the more boost/ speed. and no matter what it will go faster, n faster, n I cant stop goin faster, n faster)

Dumb idea #2: Mount it to the A/C compressor bracket, belt drive it, blow it thru the carb.
( requiring I install A/C on my 65, wich is a total pain)

Dumb idea #3: Mount it on the hood, mate it to a starter motor, hit it only when you want it Mad Max style
(I'm not sure my charging system/ Battery could handle the load, but would a cranking handle lessen that effect? And would the hood ribbing support the torqe loading?)

Dumb idea #4: Mount it to a mountain bike, hang the mountain bike tire out the window to the ground when you want it to kick in.
(I like this idea! I live in the mountains!)

Dumb idea #5: Mount it on top of the air cleaner. Mount a propeller to the front of it. The faster you drive, the faster it spins.
( Now I'm confused? At high sppeds, This would seem to cause excessive lift? I am not into aeronautic's, just old /new auto's)

Don't forget, that whatever dumb idea you choose, that you must then add a 300 shot of nitrous to it. That will smooth out all the rough spots and make all that labor and engineering worth your effort! :)
