Great pics, Rob. Gives people an understanding of the internals of the supercharger. Certainly new to me...

Looks quality work Rob

Looks good mate

I'm not sure about the black either, My chargers been polished and i really like the way it stands out in the engine bay, i think black will just make it fade away.

It will look stock - that will be the result!

Apart from my own time @£35 PH - who knows

bearings( if you can find all of them!) and new supercharger oil about £ 35

Front oil seal £.0.80

stainless allen key bolts + washers £10

painting = free

machining work on pulley = free

sealants, retaining fluids, threadlock etc = free (from work) but otherwise loctite 510 £28, loctite 638 £30, loctite 242 £40 for 50ml tubes, but 10ml tubes are available

pulley drive bolts about £90 but they were free

the 5 weeks finding all the info and tracing a bearing = priceless!

Just had a read through the thread and glad someone has done this before! I was driving today and all of a sudden heard a bad noise, lost power and smelt burning rubber in the engine bay! My supercharger has decided to cease!! :(

Until i open it all up to have a look whats wrong (hoping just the bearings or sumthing not too expensive) can the replacement parts be purchased direct from eaton or Rob can you remember where you got yours from??

Also might be a silly question.....is there a hole or filling spout to put the oil in?? or do you put it in before you put the snout back on??
