A.

The supercharger uses engine oil for

lubrication and must have an oil feed line

connected to a filtered oil high pressure

source on the engine.

B.

Remove and set aside the 1/8 NPT oil

pressure sending unit from the engine

block (located on the rear passenger side

of the engine).

C.

Install the supplied 1/8 NPT nipple into one

end of the supplied female TEE and the oil

pressure sender into the opposite end.

Install the assembly into the engine block.

D.

Attach the supplied –4 fitting into the side

of the installed TEE. Attach the braided oil

feed line to the installed fitting (See Fig.

2-a). Secure the hose with the tie wraps

provided, routing it away from exhaust

heat, chaffing and sharp objects.

Temporarily cover the open end from debris

until the connection is made to the

supercharger.

2. OIL FEED INSTALLATION

NOTE:Use clean engine oil on the pipe

threads. Teflon tape or pipe

sealant is NOT recommended as it

might loosen and cause blockage

of the small oil feed orifice

resulting in supercharger failure.
