Not to mention the ported and modified housings and snouts and modular pulley systems the GM aftermarket provides.

Ive got an M90 in my bedroom right now. Its off a thunderdird. Its not top entry. lets take a step back and look at this again.

Ford Thunderbird SC is an M90 that is intercooled. The blower is rotated 180 deg so that the compressed exit is on the top instead of the bottom. This allows the compressed air to be routed to a FMIC (or SMIC as the MSP boys call it) and then back to the intake manifold.
The Ponticrap blower you listed was an M62 not an M90 and it was rear entry like the TSC M90 I have except the throttle body is basically mounted directly to the rear of the blower casing. The TSB is rounted through a cast pipe from a different side location and this pipe includes a pressure relief valve as well. The thunderbird entry port also looks to be less restrictive than the M62 on the bonnie. I have yet to decide to do a lightning style IC or a TSC style on my project - time and money will decide in the end. I wish you good luck - but you need ot reevaluate the facts for a bit.
