WIRE PREPARATION (4.6 models only)

A.

To accommodate the installation of the supercharger

and the relocation of the coil, it will be necessary to
modify the coil and cam trigger loom, extend the ra-
dio ignition interference wire and relocate the spark
plug wire clips.

B.

Remove the 90

°

plastic wire support from the cam

sensor plug, this will allow the wire to be routed tightly
against the face of the main mounting plate at a later
time.

C.

Carefully remove approximately 6” of wire wrap from

the loom containing the coil, cam position sensor and
the radio ignition interference capacitor wire. Sepa-
rate the wires and rewrap them individually using black
electrical tape and the provided wire wrap.

D.

Cut the radio ignition interference wire approximately

4” from the plug and strip approximately 3/4” of in-
sulation off of the wire. Slip the two 2” pieces of
shrink tube over the exposed wire ends. Solder in the
6” length of red 16 gauge wire.

E.

To allow the relocation of the coil, it is necessary to

remove all spark plug wire retaining clips between
the alternator and coil as they will be reinstalled after
the coil has been moved to its new location.
