Clocking the M90. Will it be fine?

[v6buicks]

Stupid ideas have been brewing in my head for a over a year now, so poor judgement got the best of me. I bought a Gen V blower on FB. We've obviously seen the flipped blower that GTPpower whipped up, but being 180 degrees out makes oiling exactly the same as right side up. What if an M90 were to be flipped 90 degrees? Do you think the gears or bearings would suffer?

No it's still oil bath trust me the oil has a large amount of anti aeration additives because of how badly it can get whipped up it's one reason I cringe when I hear people talking about using Mobil 1 oil instead of the GM/eaton supercharger oil

I've seen other platforms mount them 90° without issue. The lsj's have them mounted at like 45°.

I guess the M62s or whatever are essentially the same thing. Idk. For some reason this idea was keeping me up last night, so I wanted to confirm. I can't wait for it to arrive so that I can get to doing more day-dreaming/planning.

I was gonna say this, I thought GM mounted them 45*'ish on the ecotec's, so...

Cut the TB off and move it to the pressure side. You will hear a noise unlike anything you've ever heard before.

This one doesn't have a TB, and I won't be adding one. ?
