I called vortech and talked to one of their engineers who said that they've seen guys run their blowers with the shipping plug in with no issues. I didn't want to take the chance so I installed a 3.00 sc pulley instead.

I stand corrected haha.

I personally wouldn't want to run with the plug in since when the oil heats up and pressure builds, it has nowhere to go. I think this puts more pressure on components that weren't necessarily meant to see that pressure. My 2 cents.
