and the air intake tube, air box, etcwhat would it cost to replace the supercharger and intake manifold with stock pieces? parts and labor (new parts vs used parts)? Thanks all.
Just rebuild the one you have if it's failing. That will run you about $2K for the supercharger and another couple hundred if you are missing the stock airbox and intake tube and you're looking to go back to stock.
Most of the used HC supercharges I run across are in the $2k-$2.5K range and seem to almost always be older units (15 and 16 cars). Haven't seen to many Red Eye SC for sale yet so not sure on what they are going for used. New your looking at about $4.5K (Dodge Charger Supercharger. Refer to illustration 905 for supercharger service kits - 68271244AN | Athens Dodge, Athens GA)
Your post almost sounds like you are looking to add one vs have a bad one. If that is the case you will need A LOT more than just the SC to make work. As such, I'd look at a whipple kit for instance which is going to be closer to $7K-$8K but will come with all you need to make it work on your application.

Logical reason: Car stolen, taken for joy ride, and rod started knocking. Pulled blower and intake to sell and make cash after ditching rest of car. I hope you're positive in your "belief" that the engine is ok. If it were my project and I wasn't sure about the engine, I'd at least do compression and leak down tests to be sure as I could before I spend massive $$ to build up a bad engine.
What's the history of the engine? Did it previously have aftermarket pullies and a tune? Does it even have a PCM installed anymore?
