7. CRANK PULLEY, SUPERCHARGER PULLEY AND BELT INSTALLATION

A.

For 1964-1967 vehicles with a 6 bolt damp-

er, place the crank pulley spacer onto the

damper oriented so that the pilot on the

damper centers the spacer. (For later vehi-

cles with a 4 bolt damper, the spacer is not

used).

B.

Place the v-belt crank pulley onto the spac-

er (or damper) and secure using the original

number of the supplied bolts.

C.

Place the supplied 10 rib supercharger

crank pulley onto the v-belt pulley. Install

using the four 3/8 x 1.25” bolts and wash-

ers supplied.

D.

If the supercharger did not come with a

pulley already installed, lightly grease the

supercharger input shaft and/or the super-

charger drive pulley bore. Install the pulley

onto the supercharger input shaft and

rotate the pulley to align the keyway. Slide

the square key into the keyway. Install the

pulley retainer assembly into the input shaft

and hand tighten.

Note: The crank pulley assembly

supplied with this kit is

designed to work on 389 and

400 cubic inch engines. For

this reason, pay close attention

to fitment during installation.

Note: If the supercharger drive pulley

will not slide onto the shaft, DO

NOT FORCE IT. Light heating

of the supercharger pulley with

a propane torch will aid

installation.

Note: Check vehicle for radiator fan

to crank pulley clearance. If

there is interference, either

space the fan forward or

replace it with a low profile

electric fan.
