My s/c was low on oil by about 3ounces. All I had was KB supercharger oil. Is that a problem or do I have to go and spend $25 on 4 ounces of oil from ford. The eaton takes 4.6 ounces, so it would be $50.

Thanks

Is it the same viscosity? My first guess would be that the KB oil would be virtually identical.

Both Ford and GM rebottle Eaton supercharger oil. Go to the GM dealer and get GM supercharger oil. It's about half the price of the Ford branded stuff.

Of course not, they will just naturally assume your Camaro is home in the garage on jack stands. :LMAO:

I got the info from Whipple. They also use eaton supercharger oil and clued me in on the GM branded version as being the lowest priced.

I used the GM stuff in my Saleen (when I had it) as well. Was about $6 a bottle if I remember correctly.
