WARNING: The oil system
contains a small orifice that is
easily plugged. DO NOT use
any type sealant on any of the
threads. Instead, use clean
engine oil. Disassemble and
blow out entire line if you have
any doubts.
G. Mount the spacer/bolt assembly onto
the main mounting bracket with the
two (2) 3/8-16 x 3/4" bolts and washers.
Thread the 5-1/4" bolt into the
supercharger (refer to the photo).
H. Tighten the air filter mount to the 90
°
elbow. Tighten the air inlet duct onto
the supercharger.
I. Mount the short end of the coil-mount
bracket to the throttle body (remove
the upper right bolt from the throttle
body) and the other end to the coil
(refer to the graphic). Mount the
opposite end of the coil to the
attachment plate. Fasten with the two
(2) 3/8-16 x 3/4" bolts, nuts and
washers.
J. Route the supercharger belt around
the crank pulley on the rear set of
grooves and underneath both the
spring tensioner and smooth idler
pulley. From the left side, place a
15mm box wrench on the spring
tensioner hex. Pull up to provide room
for the belt to slip onto the supercharger
pulley. Release tension and install the
accessory belt following the factory
procedure.
K. Install the 90
°
1/8" NPT fitting into the
supercharger oil feed with the flare
pointing to the right side.
