8. SUPERCHARGER MOUNTING
A. Reinstall the four driver's side spark leads
to the distributor module.
B. On 1995-97 models only, separate the
distributor ventilation hoses from the black
flex loom. Remove the vacuum hose from
the blue one-way valve (next to the throttle
body) and cut approximately 7-1/2" off of the
end. Run the line back up in between the
water pump and the upper main bracket to
the blue valve and reconnect. Temporarily
leave the remaining 5/32" fresh air hose
down below. (See
Figure 8-a
.)
C. Attach the supplied 1/2" x 9" drain hose to
the supercharger oil drain using the supplied
#8 clamp. Rotate the clamp so that the screw
housing will not interfere with the mounting
plate when installed.
7. SUPERCHARGER MAIN BRACKETS
A. Install the lower mounting bracket to the front
driver's side of the engine block using two
3/8-16 x 1-1/4" socket head bolts supplied.
(See
Figures 7-a, 7-b
.)
B. Install the upper mounting bracket to the
cylinder head and engine block using the
two 3/8-16 x 2-1/2" and 3/8-16 x 1-1/4"
socket head bolt. (See
Figure 7-c
.)
