A. Remove the two screws holding the small casting

or oil cooler block located directly above the oil

filter. (Vehicles with oil coolers will appear the

same as depicted in Fig. 6-a.)

B. Using engine oil on the threads, install 1/8”NPT

to #4 x 90° fitting into the supplied oil feed

adapter.

C. 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 su-

percharger oil feed filter. Use a small amount

of engine oil on the pipe threads. Pipe sealant

should not be used as it can clog the filter and

damage the supercharger.

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.
