The procharger has it's own internal oil supply while the vortec has to have an oil line drilled into the oil pan to feed it. i forget the reason why that isn't good; i wanna say it causes a pressure loss of some kind with the oil or something like that.

it isnt as good if you dont do it properly, a proper install and the vortech will be a safer setup as you will be circulating oil in and out rather than keeping the same hot oil in there.

a lot of people mess up the installs by being stupid and taping the oil line into the oil pan without removing the pan......i cannot express how retarded that is

who the hell would do that? like i don't even know how that kinda idea would even pop into someone's head as a good one.

Last I checked thats how vortech recommends doing it. Just greasing up the tap real good so it grabs the shavings. Thats one reason I went with a powerdyne for my S-10 before procharger even had a self contained unit.
