K. Tighten all mounting plate hardware, making sure

the drive belt is properly routed and no wiring or

hoses are caught between the mounting surfaces.

(See Fig. 6.2-g.)

L1. (Non V-Power/Bullitt Kits only) Install the five 3/8-16

x 1.0" bolts and washers through the back side of

the mounting plate. (See Fig. 6.2-h.)

L2. (V-Power/Bullitt Kits only) Install the five 3/8-16 x

1.5" supplied bolts and washers through the back

side of the mounting plate. Install the five .280"

long spacers (2A017-878-08) onto the previously

installed hardware. (See Fig 6.1-d)

*M. Attach the supplied length of 1/2" oil drain line

hose, and one #8 hose clamp from the previously

installed oil drain assembly, to the 1/2" barbed fit-

ting in the supercharger.

*N. Install the supplied 1/8"NPT x -4 straight fitting

from assembly 4FU130-026 to the oil feed fitting

on the supercharger.

*Q. Attach the -4 oil feed hose to the straight -4 fitting

previously installed in the supercharger. Secure

away from moving or hot objects.

R. Using a 1/2" ratchet, rotate the factory spring ten-

sioner clockwise and install the accessory drive

belt. (Refer to Fig. 6.2-e for proper belt routing.)

S. Optional belt tensioner assist upgrade only:

Once the drive belt has been installed, snug the

tensioner assist bolt. Lock in place with the previ-

ously installed jam nut.

T. Reconnect the cam sensor plug.

U. Secure the remote drain hose away from the belt

and other hoses using tie-wraps

NOTE: Any dips, “uphill” sections, kinks or restrictions

may cause drainage problems and possible

supercharger failure.

O. Attach the supercharger assembly to the mount-

ing plate using the previously installed hardware.

A 9/16" ratcheting end wrench will greatly aid in

this step.

*P. Secure the oil drain hose to the prevously

installed brass fitting in the oil pan, making sure to

route in a smooth downward manner and away

from moving or hot objects.

NOTE: Use only clean engine oil on the pipe threads.

Teflon tape or pipe sealant is not recommend-

ed as it might loosen and cause blockage of

the small oil feed orifice resulting in possible

supercharger failure.
