*A. Remove the factory ignition coil, coil brack-
et and all coil mounting hardware from the
passenger side of the engine.
*B. Remove the 8mm fastener attaching the air
conditioning pressure line silencer to the
lower radiator support to allow line
movement during line modification. (See
Fig. 7-b.)
*C. Using a hand-held 1/2" tubing bender, bend
the high pressure air conditioning line (the
line with the pressure port and cap) so that
the pressure port rotates down for
supercharger inlet clearance. (See Figs.
7-a, 7-c.)
*D. Reattach the air conditioning silencer
bracket to the radiator support.
NOTE: Air conditioning lines are under
high pressure and the fluid is
highly toxic; therefore, use
extreme caution when bending the
line to avoid kinking or breaking
the line. Support the assembly as
much as possible while bending
for clearance.
