15. HOSE ATTACHMENTS/EXTENSIONS

(2000-2005 Models only)

Connect the

lower end of the supercharger oil drain hose to

the previously installed fitting in the drain pan

using the supplied 90° x 1/2" swivel hose end.

Hose routing must be downhill with smooth

bends and must not have kinks, sharp bends or

uphill sections. Trim hose length if necessary.

Secure the drain hose to the oil pan fitting with

a #8 clamp.

(2000-2005 Models only)

Connect the

supercharger oil feed line to the previously

installed flare fitting near the oil pressure send-

ing unit. Make a gentle forward loop around

and beneath the front crossmember. Secure the

hose with the tie-wraps provided, routing it

away from chaffing and/or sharp objects.

Attach the supplied piece of 1/4" x 16" long

hose to the cylinder head coolant port that was

previously connected to the factory vacuum/

coolant tubing junction removed in Step 1.

Attach the remaining end of the hose to the cor-

responding port on the throttle body. Secure

both ends with the previously removed factory

clamps. (See Fig. 15-a, 15-b.)

Install the length of 1/2" x 36" hose to the valve

cover vent barb. Connect the opposite end to

the 1/2" brass barb located on the supercharger

inlet elbow. Trim the length if necessary.

(2000-2005 Models only)

Attach the

length of supplied 1/4" vacuum hose to the fit-

ting on the cover of the Vortech compressor

bypass valve. Route the hose over near the fuel

rail. Install the supplied 5/32" -1/4" hose reducer

into the end of the 1/4" hose. Splice one of the

supplied 5/32" brass TEEs into the fuel pressure

regulator/FMU signal hose. Attach the compres-

sor bypass vacuum hose to the remaining leg of

the 5/32 TEE using a short piece of 5/32" vacu-

um hose. (See Fig. 15-b.)

(2006-2008 Models only)

Attach the

length of supplied ¼” vacuum line to the fitting

on the cover of the Vortech compressor bypass

valve. Route the hose over toward the brake

boost located on the driver’s side firewall. Install

the 1/4"-5/32 reducer onto the open end of the

line. This line will be connected in a later step.

Reconnect the two factory vacuum hoses that

were removed in Step 1. Use the supplied

lengths of 5/32" tubing for extensions if required.

(Not on 2006-2008 Models)

Re-attach

the pressure solenoid (that was removed in

Step 1) to the harness and vacuum hoses. Use

a tie-wrap to secure the unit down toward the

crossmember and away from the crank pulley.

(See Fig. 15-c.)

NOTE: Use only 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 possible supercharger failure.
