I bought a 04 cobra on the forums here its a built 2.8kb car, upon my shop taking the car in they heard some noise from the blower and checked the oil stick and saw no oil and using a flash light there is no oil in the blower. We then took the inlet off and found blower oil in the throttle body and the elbow. Car is making 27lbs of boost according to seller and its vented to atmosphere. Does this mean the front seals are shot? Can I get away with filling it and seeing what happens with the oil level?
bought a used 2.8kb cobra, no oil in blower, oil in TB and elbow

I would call Mike at Kenne Bell and talk to him and see what he has to say. (909) 941-0985
Great advice....Mike helped me out when I had a question about my KB fuel rails. Might take some persistence and timing but keep trying if you don't get through right away.
I understand the oil level needs to be lower but this seems extreme. Does the oil level have any other correlation besides the amount of oil that is covering the gears.
Are you sure the oil in the TB and elbow isn't motor oil blown through the PCV system? I highly doubt it's blower oil.
