F.

Using the supplied 3/8-16 x 1.75" bolts and

3/8" AN washers, secure the supercharger

to the Vortech aluminum mounting bracket,

except where indicated. (See Fig. 8.2-c.)

G.

Using the supplied 3/8-16 x 2" bolt, fasten

the Vortech idler mounting plate to the

supercharger and mounting bracket. Do not

use a washer. Align the second hole while

torquing the bolt. Secure the factory

smooth idler to the idler mounting plate

with the supplied 12mm x 25mm bolt and

dust shield. Use thread locking compound.

Make sure the “open” side of the pulley is

installed toward the alternator.

**H. Detach the wiring harness support bracket

from the harness. Enlarge the hole on the

bracket using a 27/64" drill bit. (See Fig. 8.

2-d.) Remove any sharp edges around the

enlarged hole and reinstall it onto the

harness. (Failure to re-install this bracket

between the Vortech bracket and front

cover will result in bracket misalignment

and possible parts failure.)
