What do you about this discontinued Vortec Supercharger?:

Would you buy it used if it was a good deal?

Id buy it if it were a good deal. They discontinued the package, Im sure they still service the charger if needed.

it better be a really great deal.
Couple years ago I put a paxton blower kit on my LT1 camaro, headunit had seen better days after about 15k miles of use and needed new bearings but paxton didnt offer a rebuild service on those series of blowers anymore.
A couple of other places could rebuild it but for the cost it wasn't worth it.
might wanna give vortec a call and check to see what they will or wont support before you look into it more.

I bought my kit earlier this year from a member here for 2500 and it had all the major parts for it except a few small bolts n stuff that almost any hardware store would have. Id make sure all the big parts are there though, as they dont offer "ANY" parts for the kit. Vortech does still rebuild the chargers if needed. There are several companies like 928 motorsports that carry the rebuild kits for the do it yourself kinda person. If you have pics of the kit I will try and look over everything to help double check, because if its not there, your **** outta luck...
