The whole rattle problem has been way overblown. The bottom line is if you have no rattle or a slight rattle you don't need to do anything. If its bad go ahead and put in a solid isolator-if the noise doesnt bother you youl be fine as is.

I respectfully disagree with you on not doing anything if you hear the rattle. It will eventually damage the motor. I also would like to know how you know that when a supercharger goes back to GM that they send new ones back instead of reconditioning the ones that have been returned to them. Everything you have said has been discussed on this forum over the years and no one has ever stated what you have. No offense to you just wondering where your getting your info.
