Unhappy Please help with supercharger install???

Ok you guys said that i didnt have to pull the motor to install the oil feed line for my sc. But my question is wont there be left over pieces of the oil pan inside of the pan if i drill the hole or do i put the hole in the pan some other way besides drilling it?
Cause i know if there are pieces of metel in the oil it will f$u$c$k things up.

For the oil feed line should be tapped of the oil pressure sender with a "T" style connector.
As for the return line, you should NOT use a drill. Use a punch. Start with a small one to create a hole, then use a slighty bigger one to enlarge the hole, continue to due this until you've reached the size hole you need.
This method will separate the metal, not cut it. This results in no metal fragments in your oil pan.
Good Luck

I seen this procedure performed on "Horsepower TV" they loaded up a drill bit with vaseline to drill the hole and all of the shavings stuck to the vaseline and then they used a tap with vaseline on it also it seemed to work pretty well. After they were through with the install they changed the oil just to make sure that there were no shavings in the pan.

Bearing grease also works well.
