S. Align the M10 x 1.25" x 115 screw (previously
inserted through the front of the main super-
charger plate) into the factory idler pulley
mount on the front cover. (See Fig. 8-u.)
Make sure that the supplied Ø1.0" O.D. x
2.726" long spacer is sandwiched between
the back of the supercharger mounting plate
and the inner bearing race of the factory idler.
Do not tighten any screws at this time.
T. Insert the three supplied M6 x 1.0" x 80
screws with washers through the previously
removed VTEC solenoid, the Vortech super-
charger plate mounting block and into the
side of the cylinder head. (See Figs. 8-v,
8-w.) Make sure that both of the VTEC gas-
kets remain in their proper locations during
bracket installation on the engine. Thread the
supplied M10 x 1.25 x 50 screw with washer
into the remaining hole in the supercharger
plate mounting block and into the cylinder
head. Thread the four screws down until the
heads almost touch the washers. Do not
tighten the screws at this time.
U. Attach the supplied lateral supercharger
mounting plate (‘L’ shaped bracket) support to
the front corner of the cylinder head as
shown using the supplied M8 x 1.25 x 45
socket head screws (no washers are used
here). (See Figs. 8-u, 8-x). Thread the screws
down until the heads almost touch the plate.
Do not tighten the screws.
V. Align the two threaded holes in the end of the
lateral support with the two holes in the
supercharger mounting plate. Slide the two
supplied 5/16-18 x 1.0" screws with AN wash-
ers through the remaining two holes in the
supercharger mounting plate and into the lat-
eral support. Thread the screws down until
the heads almost touch the washers. Do not
tighten the screws at this time.
W. Secure the completed mounting bracket
assembly to the engine by lightly “snugging”
the hardware in the following sequence:
1. Four VTEC solenoid mounting screws.
2. 3/8-16 x 3.5" screw running through the
top hole of the upper support plate, Ø.875"
O.D. x 1.858" long spacer and into the
supercharger.
3. M12 x 1.75" x 50 screw running through
the upper support plate, Ø1.0 O.D. x .549"
NOTE: when installing the supercharger with
bracket assembly onto the engine, the belt
must be manipulated so that it is properly
routed around the idler, tensioner, super-
charger pulley and lower supercharger
plate spacer. (refer back to Fig. 8-n.)
