K. Tighten all mounting plate hardware, making sure
the drive belt is properly routed and no wiring or
hoses are caught between the mounting surfaces.
(See Fig. 6.2-g.)
L1. (Non V-Power/Bullitt Kits only) Install the five 3/8-16
x 1.0" bolts and washers through the back side of
the mounting plate. (See Fig. 6.2-h.)
L2. (V-Power/Bullitt Kits only) Install the five 3/8-16 x
1.5" supplied bolts and washers through the back
side of the mounting plate. Install the five .280"
long spacers (2A017-878-08) onto the previously
installed hardware. (See Fig 6.1-d)
*M. Attach the supplied length of 1/2" oil drain line
hose, and one #8 hose clamp from the previously
installed oil drain assembly, to the 1/2" barbed fit-
ting in the supercharger.
*N. Install the supplied 1/8"NPT x -4 straight fitting
from assembly 4FU130-026 to the oil feed fitting
on the supercharger.
*Q. Attach the -4 oil feed hose to the straight -4 fitting
previously installed in the supercharger. Secure
away from moving or hot objects.
R. Using a 1/2" ratchet, rotate the factory spring ten-
sioner clockwise and install the accessory drive
belt. (Refer to Fig. 6.2-e for proper belt routing.)
S. Optional belt tensioner assist upgrade only:
Once the drive belt has been installed, snug the
tensioner assist bolt. Lock in place with the previ-
ously installed jam nut.
T. Reconnect the cam sensor plug.
** U. Secure the remote drain hose away from the belt
and other hoses using tie-wraps
NOTE: Any dips, “uphill” sections, kinks or restrictions
may cause drainage problems and possible
supercharger failure.
O. Attach the supercharger assembly to the mount-
ing plate using the previously installed hardware.
A 9/16" ratcheting end wrench will greatly aid in
this step.
*P. Secure the oil drain hose to the prevously
installed brass fitting in the oil pan, making sure to
route in a smooth downward manner and away
from moving or hot objects.
NOTE: Use only clean engine oil on the pipe threads.
Teflon tape or pipe sealant is not recommend-
ed as it might loosen and cause blockage of
the small oil feed orifice resulting in possible
supercharger failure.
