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.
