I'm very sorry for your loss Tim and understand your desire to keep the car even though trading it is the only reasonable way to make it a V8 (swapping engines is just not so simple anymore).
However Nutbutt is correct- the IPF supercharger is designed to bolt right to a stock V6 and raise output to a little more than a stock V8. You can also always un-bolt it and return the car to stock (say when you're ready to pass the car to your son or daughter... ).
