I am on my second Vortech and have never had a drop of oil leak that I didn't cause myself.

Yes, it uses engine oil for lube, but the self-contained Procharger oil gets just as hot after a while and needs to be changed like every 3K miles.

Sounds like you got a good deal on the Vortech, and this will be a hella fun car to drive when you're done.

Did you buy the kit off my old car? If you need the T rex inline fuel pump I have it in my garage, I'll give you a good deal on it shipped. Also you will need to get your car tuned. You will need the 36 lb injectors or 42's.

It takes nothing to pull off that kit, I could have it done in a couple hours, its a piece of cake.

good luck you'll like it.

and changing a belt on a vortech is like a 5 min job. Not that you will have to do it often. I never had a belt break, stretch or be misaligned or have slippage for that matter.

Yes I did buy your old kit, It's in good shape. The seller didn't give me the crank balancer thoughI'm still hoping he sends it. I'm going down there in the spring so I'll end up getting it one way or another.
Yeah I'm not sure if i'm going intank or inline...I might need to do intank being a have stock pump in my car. I'll let you know.

the inline will work fine for your power right now and you wont have to drop the tank which is a pain in the ***.

tell that dude to rip off that balancer.

the stock pump and inline should be good enough for 550-600 rwhp.
