M. Install the five 3/8-16 x 1.5" supplied bolts

and washers through the back side of the

mounting plate. Install the five .280" long

spacers (2A017-878-08) onto the previously

install hardware. (See Figs. 2-d, 2-g.)

N. Attach the supercharger assembly to the

mounting plate using the previously installed

hardware and spacers. A 9/16" ratcheting end

wrench will greatly aid this step.

O. Secure the oil drain hose to the installed

brass fitting in the oil pan, making sure to

route in a smooth downward manner away

from moving or hot objects.

Attach the -4 oil feed hose to the straight -4

fitting installed in the supercharger. Secure

away from moving or hot objects.

Q. Using a 1/2" ratchet, rotate the factory spring

tensioner clockwise and install the accessory

drive belt. Refer to Fig. 2-c for proper belt

routing.

R. Once the drive belt has been installed, snug

the tensioner assist bolt. Lock in place with

the previously installed jam nut.

NOTE: Any dips, “uphill” sections, kinks or restric-

tions may cause drainage problems and

possible supercharger failure.
