Depends on the how hard the vehicle is driven. 99% of all factory supercharged vehicles are using eaton roots type superchargers/Positive displacement. Eaton superchargers web site states, "they are designed to last the life of the vehicle". The only centrifugal (paxton,vortech,procharger,rotex type) factory superchargered vehicles (that I know of) are the previous keonisegg and the Alpina B7Centrifical superchargers. Eaton states that the oil in the gear case is designed for the life of the supercharger/doesn't need changing, but say if they are frequently raced 20k miles cahanges are ok. I know centrifugal types have problems with drive belt life, especially when pushing higher boost. Prochargers recommend 6k mile oil changes for thier self containted oiled superchargers.
The Edelbrock E-Force supercharger does require forged internals if you want your engine to last for a long time.
Yes, you can drive without the Supercharger belt for as long as necessary.

Procharger is a supercharger. It is a brand of centrifugal superchargers.
The most common and normal signs will be: * Oil leakage from the supercharger * Supercharger making a knocking noise * Lower or no boost pressure * Oil not present inside the supercharger
I am a used car wholesaler and although I do not know about a 2004 I have seen 98s-01s with 145k or more that the supercharger is still in great working condition so i feel it would be a safe purchase.
I think you mean the Supercharger belt? You cannot drive anywhere without your accessory belt... You can drive as long as you want without your Supercharger belt but be prepared for a substantial loss in power.
gm supercharger oil for the supercharger. any oil you prefer for the engine oil.
No supercharger. SS stands for Super Sport.
A supercharger is belt driven and a turbocharger is exhaust driven
