supercharger

does the supercharger get replaced when the engine get replaced fails?

I'd like to assume so. To the contrary, if the blower wasn't the culprit they might recycle it.

I don’t think so, at least not in my case. They changed “the long block and everything that touches the oil.” Mine was a result of a spin rod bearing.

I don't believe so.

If the engine throws a rod as an example or maybe if a valve fails. I doubt they would replace the supercharger.

Your block would certainly be replaced the supercharger is a separate component that unless they determine its also damaged they would just swap it.

I fix shit for a living, not cars, but to me its all the same shit. One component fails, you replace it and anything else it destroyed. You keep the rest even if it also touched it.

Crank shaft spun some bearings if that happened could it not let the Pistons go higher and hit a valve.? They did not change the supercharger use the same one and said the computer will let me go full power of course I know I have to break it in.

The only time pistons would hit valves is if the timing chain broke and the timing was incorrect allowing the pistons to be up when the valves are open, or if a rod snapped or wrist pin snapped, and the piston went farther than its normal travel.

the dealer said that they would replace everything that the engine oil touched. Then why did they put my heads back on?
