    So as I was lowering my engine back into my car, the engine tilted - pointing the nose of the supercharger towards the ground, and a lot of oil spilled out. Is this normal? It seems to me the the supercharger was at all sorts of angles and there was no oil coming out before putting the engine back into the car. I did change the oil, could it have been overfilled? It was only filled up to the bottom of the threads on the supercharger oil bolt...
