Default Need help this weekend w a Voretch install

After being jerked around by a local shop about installing my replacement Vortech unit its still uninstalled and now its putting me in a situation where I wont be able to enter it into my schools car show on Monday. All week long they've said it'd be ready to pick up friday afternoon and today i've come to find out the blowers still in the UPS box from vortech! Looking for someone that might be able to do it in the MD/DE area. Willing to pay a fair price and help as much as possible...

To Frans= I really wish i would have now... went with the "use the buddies shop" route and it fucked me..

Camaro= I do all my bolt on stuff solo, but I really just want the supercharger done by someone who knows what they are doing. Yea, I would love to help with it and be a part of it but with as expensive as superchargers are I'm really not trying to do this install with 0 expierence. I'd much prefer have someone else there w me

so a buddy and I decided to put it on last night. everything was going good until we realized the damn shop didnt give us back 5 of the 6 bolts that bolt the blower to the bracket. so at 6 oclock on sunday I had to drive 30 miles to the nearest open parts store to get them. once we got that all done we found out that they cut my oil return line AND didnt give us the adapter for the other oil line to connect with the blower! luckly my buddys girlfriends uncle is a plumber so at 11 oclock at night we got into his shop, grabbed a **** load of adapters and a tube that fit our cut hose. then we went back to the garage, fitted both oil lines and started her up. seems to be runnin great
