OIL FEED LINE (ENGINE OIL-FED KITS ONLY. APPLICATIONS WITH V-3
SUPERCHARGER SKIP AHEAD TO STEP 8)
A. Remove the two screws holding the small
casting or oil cooler block located directly
above the oil filter.
B. Using engine oil on the threads, install
1/8"NPT to #4 90° fitting into the supplied oil
feed adapter.
C. Locate the supplied gasket that matches the
factory gasket that was removed. Using the
adapter, the appropriate supplied gasket and
the supplied longer 6mm screws, assemble
the components as shown in Fig. 6-a).
D. Install a 1/8"NPT to #4 90° fitting into the
supercharger oil feed filter. Use a small
amount of engine oil on the pipe threads.
Install the 90° end of the stainless steel oil
feed line to the 90° fitting already installed on
the supercharger. Orient the hose so that it is
pointing to the rear of the vehicle. This will
allow the air inlet tube to have clearance that
is installed later.
E. Route the oil feed line from the supercharger
to the installed fitting. Use an adel clamp on
the side of the oil pan and tie wraps to secure
the oil feed and oil drain lines and protect
them from kinking, abrasion and high heat
areas. (See Fig. 6-a.)
F. Drain the engine oil, install a new filter and
refill the engine with fresh oil.
NOTE: Pipe sealant should not be used as it can clog the fil-
ter and damage the supercharger.
