*** NOTE ***

Some applications (depending on intake manifold
height) may require the reclocking of the supercharg-
er volute. If reclocking is required for your applica-
tion, loosen and remove the six 1/4-20 cap screws
and retaining plates that hold the compressor hous-
ing (volute) to the gearcase. If the compressor hous-
ing does not rotate freely relative to the gearcase, DO
NOT FORCE IT. SERIOUS SUPERCHARGER DAMAGE
MAY OCCUR. The machined mating surfaces are
designed to prevent pressurized air from escaping
and have minimal tolerances. If the housing will not
move or is very tight, contact Paxton Automotive
immediately at 888 9-paxton and ask our service
department for further assistance.
