***NOTE***

In order to get a wrench on the supercharger spring

tensioner, it is necessary to remove the smooth idler

from the alternator bracket and move the accessory

drive belt out of the way.

F.

Use a combination wrench on the spring ten-
sioner idler screw to draw the spring ten-
sioner as far away from the power steering
pulley as possible. Route the supercharger
drive belt around the crank pulley and
release the spring tensioner.

G.

Reinstall the smooth idler onto the alternator
plate assembly. Install the accessory drive
belt in the original configuration by retract-
ing the factory spring tensioner.

H.

Route the free end of the oil feed hose to the
supercharger and attach using a 90° fitting in
the supercharger oil feed fitting. (See Fig.
8-d
.)

***NOTE***

Make sure there are no bends, kinks or dips in the oil

drain line. The hose must maintain a constant “down-

hill” direction. A restriction in the drain path may cause

leakage and/or supercharger failure.

K.

Install the supplied shock tower support
cross bar into the previously installed
braces. Note that at the end of the bar that
has bolt flats is left-hand thread and so must
use the left-hand rod end. Adjust the bar to
fit and install and tighten the 7/16" bolts on
each end. Tighten the jam-nuts on each rod
end.

I.

Attach the free end of the oil drain hose to
the previously installed oil drain fitting in
the oil pan and secure with a #8 hose clamp.
Trim hose length if necessary.

J.

Use zip-ties as necessary to secure the oil
drain and oil feed lines away from moving
parts.
