FUEL LINE MODIFICATION

FUEL LINE MODIFICATION

A.

Please refer to Appendix 1016049 for the
attachment of the S/C discharge tube. It will
travel from the supercharger, underneath the
car, up between the engine and the firewall,
and connects to the throttle body. Begin by
attaching item number 4 to the throttle body
at the rear of the engine and tighten both
clamps on the factory elbow. Install the
mounting hardware from the stock plastic
part that is attached to the throttle body (see
Fig. 9-1)

Fig. 9-1

You will have to remove a plastic cover and
the Schraeder Valve to make the connection.
At this time, it is also recommended that the
spark plugs be changed to AUTOLITE
5224, or equivalent, gapped to .035. Do not
use Platinum Spark Plugs with the super-
charger.

C.

Attach the Compressor Bypass Assembly to
the discharge tube. (See Appendix 1016066).
Notice that the “T” fitting (item 5) goes
between the Vacuum Reservoir and the
Vacuum Branch next to the Brake Booster.
Connect the vacuum line going to the Boost
Gauge to the other “T’ fitting. The Boost
Gauge Vacuum line goes through the body
panel through the grommet and comes out
under the steering column. (See Fig. 9-3.)

STOCK HARDWARE

Then, from underneath the vehicle, attach
item 1, the cast discharge tube, to the turbo
hose that you previously attached to the
supercharger. Attach item 6 to the throttle
body side, and finally attach item 5 to con-
nect both ends. Make sure all of the clamps
are tightened properly. Make sure that the
Discharge Tube is level as it passes under the
vehicle, and that it will clear the ground.
Adjustments can be made at either end at the
Turbo Sleeve connectors.

B.

The fuel line from the discharge tube assem-
bly will need to be routed at this point. The
fuel line needs to be routed along the fire-
wall (being careful to avoid any exhaust or
potentially hot surfaces), under the back of
the manifold, and to connect with the fitting
on the side of the fuel rail (see Fig. 9-2).
