Thumbs up $400.00 ltd time, Embree Machine Shop, The "Original" Ported L blower guys

Guys and Gals,

I found out who used to do the porting for Apten and went straight to the "Main" man to get my blower ported.

They will port your blower for $400.00 plus shipping until Jan. 15, with no GP required.

This is who is doing my Blower. They have been porting Eatons for a long time, Pontiac GTP's, Ford S/C's, etc. They really know there stuff.

Send it where you want, but IF you want the best job done, get it done by Embree.

Call Paul @ 562-307-5959. Shop is located in St. Louis, MO area.

Yes Vinnie, They check the blower , bearings, etc. When you get it back, just add oil and haul a$$.

I sent my blower to Embree last week to get it done. Just didn't post I was having it done..

They were doing the work for Apten and Apten decided to cut Embree out of the picture, so Embree decided to go direct to the public.


That's 5.4, not 5.0 I get it...

when we were trying to find a partner we tried ESM along with 2 other vendors. Unfortunatly their turn around time was slow (4 weeks for 1 port job) and the quality was not where we needed it to be. ESM is a small company and they did not have the time or resources to fulfill our needs. We did not actually sell those units to the public, they were all for testing. And we have never dyno tested one of their lighting superchargers for measuring gains, so I wouldn't know what to expect there. They did a total of 5 test units whereas our current vendor has now done over 100 for us.

So we actually have an experienced machine shop doing our work, and they are our "partner" in this. There are no hard feeling with ESM, what we needed they could not provide us with. We instead partnered with a company that took the initiative to work hard and turn around units in 1-2 days and had first class machine work and was willing to continue to put resounces into testing and improving their products.

Just so we are on the same page, the superchargers you hear about that have come from Apten have not originated from ESM. They were just a company we did some testing with a while back.

and for what it's worth, the apten GP has been met so people can now get them for the special price ported, inspected, re-sealed, and filled up with fluid if signed up within the next 7 days. This savings of over $100 is only because of the group discount. We also have a stock of seals and case bearings if any of the units we inspect need to be looked over.
