i talked this all over. my buddy runs courtesy chevy and is friends with the rep. they are starting to come down hard on the blowers from gm in general because of this court case. he said the roller rockers are no probs. esp the slp ones i guess something about gm using them as certified part seller. But the blower thing is goin to get very bad.

I have heard nothing about the "blower" thing.

My Point being, weather it is a blower or a hand held tuner, or an intake. If there is a problem they can screw with you.
