With Edelbrock there is a free drivetrain warranty... so this is how it works.... let's say your transmission goes out after you have a supercharger installed and take it to a dealership and they tell you they will not fix it. You then will contact Edelbrock and they will pay to have it repaired for you.
I also doubt blowing up a trans would be as easy to get them to pay as you described. These warranties are typically full of restrictions, legal mumbo jumbo, max payouts, deductibles etc..
I had a Salleen Supercharger on a previous Mustang that developed a bearing whine within a year. Even though under warranty, I could not get them to repair. Just promises, no return calls etc until I gave up and paid to have it fixed.

Just keep in mind the Edelbrock warranty starts with the car's in-service date. It does NOT extend the factory warranty. When the factory 3/36 ends, so does the Edelbrock warranty.

Saleen is a difference animal... that company was horrible about honoring warranties... Edelbrock is not..

Mine was unique in that I bought the Saleen right as the company was getting ready to declare bankrupcy. They basically left anyone with a Saleen purchased product blowing in the wind. Now I see Steve is back under another company name. Different company, same poor customer service, I'm sure.
Edelbrock has been around longer than I have so expect their customer service to be better.

Might very well be. I'd get it in writing and read the fine print carefully. It will save you a load of headaches in the future.
