Talking Finished blower install, ran good till tranny let go

well just wrapped up the blower install and had to track down a bunch of stuff, cranked it up and everything worked. I took it around the block for my shakedown run and it ran like a scalded dog. then on the way back it it would vibrate really bad when i got on it. pulled the tranny dipstick and it was full of metal, it looked like glitter. only think was the crank pulley for the blower came loose, I thought i had it super tight but i guess not. maybe loctite would do the job? with the 12 pounds of boost it really moved along pretty good. I need to get it on the dyno to see what kind of number it has after i build another tranny.

note to everyone wanting to put a super charger on their car.

if you buy a used kit, make sure to have a couple hundred bucks on hand for the extra stuff you need.

you WILL find all of your oil leaks lol.

btw this is on a 189,000 mile motor
