A. The supercharger uses engine oil for lubrica-

tion and must have an oil feed line connected

to a filtered oil access on the engine.

B. Locate the oil pressure sending unit on the

passenger side of the engine, toward the

front (see Fig. 2-a). Using a 7mm socket,

remove the signal wire from the sending unit.

Using a 15/16" socket, remove the sending

unit from the engine.

C. Install the supplied 1/8" BSP adapter into the

block. Install the supplied 1/8"NPT street

TEE into the BSP adapter. Thread the stock

sending unit into the TEE as shown in Fig.

2-b. Reattach the stock signal wire and nut to

the sending unit.

D. Install the supplied 90° x 1/8"NPT x #4 flare

fitting into the previously installed TEE. (See

Fig. 2-c.) Make sure that the fitting is tight-

ened and clocked as shown.

E.

Temporarily cover the open fitting hole to

keep out debris until the connection is made

to the supercharger hose in a later step.

NOTE: Use only clean engine oil on the pipe

threads. teflon tape or pipe sealant is not

recommended as it might loosen and

cause blockage of the small oil feed orifice

resulting in possible supercharger failure.
