I was curious how much heat the internals in a vortech vs-1 supercharger can handle...considering how hot engine compartments can get....do you think the internals will take up to 450 degrees? I am thinking about powdercoating my supercharger....dont want to take it all apart and risk it not working right...(i'm no supercharger technition..)
