MOUNTING THE BOTTLE

Slide bottle into bottle brackets. Use illustration A as a guide for proper alignment. Locate bottle assembly in a

mounting area that will provide easy access to bottle valve for hose connection and bottle removal. Using the bottle
unit as a pattern, mark and drill four 3/8” holes. Note: Before drilling holes be sure to check beneath the area being
drilled for obstructions, fuel lines or fuel tank. Then secure unit to mounting surface. (Recommended minimum of
four 5/16” grade five bolts). Align the bottle in the brackets so that the valve outlet is pointing downward to the
mounting surface (see illustration A) and tighten the bottle bracket bolts. NOTE: This is VERY IMPORTANT so
that internal siphon tube will pick up liquid nitrous.

ROUTING THE NITROUS FEED LINE

NOTE: Place a piece of tape over the end of the hose to prevent debris from entering the feed line during the routing
process.

The 15-foot 6AN nitrous feed line may be routed to the engine compartment either through the passenger

compartment or under the vehicle. Route the line carefully to prevent the possibility of restricting nitrous flow. If

routed under vehicle, locate and drill a 3⁄4 inch diameter hole in a suitable area near the bottle valve outlet for the
main line. Starting at the bottle nipple (Do not attach line to the bottle nipple yet) route the line to the engine
compartment. Following the factory fuel lines is

usually the best path. Note: Keep maximum clearance between all

moving parts, suspension components and hot engine components, securing the supply line where possible (“Zip
Ties” are the best for securing the feed line). Be especially careful of the feed line being near any “HOT” electrical
leads, one small spark will destroy the Teflon liner causing a nitrous leak.


NOZZLE MOUNTING

The location of the nozzle will dictate the location of the solenoids, (limited by the 2 foot nozzle feed lines). The

mounting location for the “Shark” nozzle on factory installed Fuel Injection systems is in the air inlet tube at a point
about 2-6 inches before the throttle body. The actual spacing is not important. (See Illustration B.)
