04 with 20k on it. vortec kit has maybe 6k on it. bottem of frame on car has oil residue and frame under supercharge also has residue. i cant tell where its coming from. anyone else have this problem?

 

no

 

non-vortech but i've had a beach of a time isolating where the oil leak has come from. at first it appeared to be coming from one spot, not too much oil. then, it seemed to be coming from another spot. recently i found one area that needed tightening but in general after a hard drive everything has been sprayed and the belt has slung oil everywhere. i just said funk it, so i just check the oil every time i drive and probably top off once or twice a week. good luck with the oil problem.

 

I had this problem with my Comptech unit. The seals were bad and needed to be replaced. Pull the intake tube off the blower and see if there is a bunch of oil residue around the impeller.

 

so it will need to go to vortec and basically be rebuilt?

theres no oil on the belt or engine. just on frame and on bottem s/c its self

 

You need to determine if you have an external leak or the blower is leaking internally. If you have a large amount of oil around the impeller, inside the intake tube, throttle body, etc then it is probablty the blower itself and needs the seals replaced.

 

pulled off intake tube to s/c and it does gave oil on the impeller and housing....anyone kno how much it is to fix?

 

call vortech get a quote...look at your pm's I already answered your question

I had a similar problem & tracked it to two issues;

1) oil on air filter getting sucked in draining down through BOV on to bottom of snail and frame rail

2) If you are venting crankcase pressure from the valve cover to the intake elbow (standard CTSC install) you will also get some oil from that condensing with the air filter oil.

Is there oil in the intake pipe and blow down valve?
