A. It will be necessary to relocate the thermostat
housing to gain clearance for the supercharger
mounting bracket.
B. Locate hose 7U133-050. The hose will be modi-
fied and will replace the factory lower radiator
hose removed in a previous step. (See Fig. 7-a.)
C. Modify the supplied hose as seen in the figure
below. (See Figs. 7-b, 7-c.)
D. Trim approximately 5" off of the 9" end of the
hose and 5-1/4" of the 13" end.
*** NOTE ***
Because of manufacturing tolerances, it is best to
leave this hose long and trim to fit.
E. Install the long end of the modified hose to the
outlet of the radiator with a #24 hose clamp.
Leave the clamp loose for adjustment.
F. Install the thermostat housing to the open end
of the new the lower radiator hose and the large
