Default Paxton Supercharger Rebuild Kit

Hey again,

I have a Paxton Supercharger (model SN-89) in my -87 Vette. It needs a rebuild kit though, since some of the parts are pretty worn-out.

Does anyone of you have a reliable dealer that sells this rebuild kit and what is the approximate price. I have already been quoted a price from a Canadian dealer for $675. Is this a reasonable price?

Thanks for you help!

I'm in the same boat. I bought an SN89 about two years ago knowing that it needed to be rebuilt. For the cost that you've been quoted, I'd much rather do it myself - it is a dead simple unit to take appart and reassemble. If you decide to do it yourself, the last link SuperL98 provided will prove invaluable!

Good luck!

Thank you for the links.

Through your endorsement I just ordered a rebuild kit from Paradise Wheels for $450.

It should in theory arrive next week and then I'll be at it.

Thanks again for the help!

Btw, I've been looking for a manual for the SN-89 but haven't been able to find one. Does anyone of you have a manual or something to help me put it together?
