what a disappointin labor day weekend
i bought this new vortech v2 sq headunit may 27th of last year
which puts me out of warranty 3 months. i called and they was nice enough to say they will replace the impellar and put new bearings for $800 bux
so looks like i will be selling a vortech sq kit very soon.. talking cheap someone can rebuild it and have a new kit for cheap.
To make myself feel better i went ahead and pulled the trigger and ordered a novi 2000 kit.. comes with intercooler and dave pickrels brackets and intercooler piping...nicely powdercoated so my engine bay should look really good. it should be a real nice kick in the pants:heart:
so without further ado here are the sq pics... mind you its a year old truck has 5000 miles since last year blower was on for 3000 miles, i dont drive it a whole lot it is my toy.. it was pulleyed 8 inch lower and 3.15 upper making 12 psi at stock shift points thru the 393 motor
i finally got around to it 2day to pull the upper intake and get all the blades out of it:scared1:, changed oil, and pulled plugs and compression test.. so far so good:thumbup:
notice the marks that vortech puts on the shaft and impellar have moved.. dont know how that happened:headscratch:
