11. SUPERCHARGER INSTALLATION

A. Remove the plastic drain fitting cap and install

the supplied 1/2" oil drain hose onto the barb
fitting on the bottom of the supercharger and
secure with the supplied #8 hose clamp.

B. Install the supercharger mounting plate onto

the supercharger with the three 3/8" x 1"
screws as shown in

Fig. 11-a

C. Install the supplied Ø5/16" x 1.0" alignment

dowels into the countersunk holes in the
supercharger gear case.

D. Install the supplied .25" thick spacer onto the

alignment dowels placing the dowels in the
larger diameter holes of the spacer. (See

Figs.

11-b, 11-c

)

Align the counter bores in the black coupler

housing with the alignment dowels passing
through the previously installed spacer. Lightly
tap the housing until it is flush with the spacer.
(See

Fig. 11-c

)

Apply a thin layer of grease on the inside

diameter of the steel supercharger drive
coupling containing three Ø1/4" dowel pins.
Install the supplied key and drive coupling onto
the supercharger input shaft. Heat may also be
necessary to intall the coupling onto the shaft.
(A propane torch will make this easier if
needed.) Verify the coupling is bottomed out
on the shaft. Secure the coupling with the
supplied Ø1.0" washer and 3/8-24 x .75" (use
a light thread-lock compound) HXHD screw.
