Quick Vortech V3 question
I am looking at adding a Vortech SC to my Mustang and one last concern I had was regarding the maintenance. Is it real tough to change the oil in it? Since they switched over from tapping the oil pan to the new style, I wasn't sure if that would be a pain. I downloaded the maintenance and install guide from Vortech, but there wasn't mention of how to do it. Appreciate the help in advance!!

There is a braided steel line that comes off the bottom with a nut in the end of it. You unscrew that, drain it, then refill it via the dipstick hole in the top. Depending on whether you have the cooled or non-cooled (like mine), the unit will have a different orientation on the car.
You can find change info here:

The gold nut on the right is the dipstick on mine:

No problem, the cooled version will have the blower rotated about 45 degrees counter-clockwise, but Vortech has engineered multiple possible entry points of the dipstick, etc. It should work the same pretty much...
