I'm assuming the drain line screws into the supercharger. If the size of that port is the same size as the vent port. Could you not drain your supercharger, and install the shipping plug into the drain port to block it off?
Yeah. It screws in. Problem is the only way to get to the drain line connected to the SC is to pull the blower. That's going to be a pain. For now, I pinched the line. The line is rubber tubing wrapped with stainless steel braids I think. If the rubber pinches fully, it should be able to stop the fluid flow at the pinch. The line is very low pressure. At idle anyways. Less than 1psi it seems. I don't know for higher speeds though.
