Dan flew in today at 12:30 picked up his Z, took it for a test drive and came back a little scared of how much power it makes. Just got off the phone with him and he is halfway home to Charlotte.

I've been researching kits, might be calling you guys about a single kit on my 370. That's a damn good price you have on your site, and it says installed, that right?

just gonna say i've seen quite a few blown vortech units, they can't have the belt overtightened or the input bearings will go fast (had one where the bearing bore in the front cover actually went out of round and had to be sleeved) and you can only spin them to 60% capacity or the output seal behind the impeller blows out and you start sucking the lube through the engine til the blower runs dry and dies. eventually you end up putting 928motorsports on your speed dial and memorizing the part numbers for the upgraded seals and bearings.

i had the v2 on my mustang for years with no problem but it did share the engines oil. great little blower i was using 8rib belt to stop slippage uptop

it should be common practice when every you buy a used unit to swap out the bearings just to be safe
