GENERAL INSTALLATION PRACTICES
Dear Customer:
Your new Banks PowerPack
®
is a unique combination of air
intake and exhaust components
designed to make the most of
your engine’s power potential.
By removing intake and exhaust
restrictions, providing cooler
intake air, and tuning the
exhaust to create a scavenging
effect, your engine can produce
more power at a higher level of
efficiency. If your driving habits
remain the same, your fuel
mileage should go up, and you
can run on the same octane fuel
you are accustomed to using.
If you have any questions
concerning the installation of the
Banks PowerPack ® kit, please call
Gale Banks Engineering at (626)
969-9600 between 8:00 am & 5:00
pm (PT) and ask for the service
department.
Thank you.
1.
Before starting work, familiarize
yourself with the installation procedure
by reading all of the instructions.
2.
Inspect all components supplied
for any foreign material that may have
entered during shipping and handling.
CAUTION: Whatever methods are
used to elevate the vehicle must be
of sufficient capacity for the vehicle
weight involved. NEVER work
under any vehicle supported only
by a jack of any kind. DO NOT USE
concrete blocks or other masonry
items that may collapse under the
vehicle weight.
3.
Pay particular attention to the routing
of any wires. Keep them away from
exhaust heat, moving parts and sharp
edges that may cause cuts or other
damage. Route or tie wires away from
critical areas as required. Keep all wires
a minimum of 6” from hot exhaust parts,
8” or more is recommended whenever
possible.
4.
Right-hand and left-hand designations
refer to the driver’s right or left, as
seated in the vehicle, (i.e.: Right-hand
refers to the passenger side of the
vehicle, unless noted otherwise.)
5.
The Banks Motorhome PowerPack
is designed to fit class “A” 460 Ford
chassis combinations. Because of
different equipment layouts used
by various coach builders, some
accessories and components may have
to be relocated to accommodate the
air intake components of the Banks
PowerPack.
NOTIFICATION
The Banks Ram-Air Filter comes
pre-oiled and no oiling is necessary
for initial installation. Service the
filter as specified in the Cleaning
and Oiling the Banks Ram-Air Filter
Section of this manual.
