4. MAIN MOUNTING BRACKET AND PLATE
A. It is necessary to provide clearance
between the dipstick and accessory
drive belt. Remove the bolt holding the
dip stick tube. Hold the tube about two
inches and gently bend rearward about
an inch. With the new fastener
resecure.
B. Mount the cast aluminum main
mounting bracket on the front of the
engine's right cylinder head using the
fasteners provided, as shown.
C. Please note that the 3-3/4" bolt also
holds the supercharger mounting plate.
This fastener must be threaded into its
hole loosely as a pilot while securing
the cast bracket with the other two,
then removed for installation of the
supercharger mounting plate.
D. Attach the stock belt tensioner to the
front of the supercharger mounting
plate as shown. Make sure the indexing
tab is engaged in the slot.
E. Now secure the plate and tensioner as
an assembly to the cast bracket.
F. Attach the support strut between the
supercharger mounting plate and the
second exhaust manifold stud. If you
have installed headers, you will need
to make a longer tube spacer to make
up the difference between the header
and manifold thickness. Secure with
the stainless steel bolt.
