13. OIL FEED INSTALLATION (OIL-FED UNITS ONLy)

Locate the supercharger oil feed port on the pas-

senger side of the supercharger. (See Fig. 13A)

Remove the blue plastic plug from the super-

charger oil feed port and install the included -4AN

male fitting. (See Fig. 13B)

Connect the 90° end of the included -4AN braided

oil feed hose to the supercharger oil feed fitting.

Route the hose downward and toward the driver

side between the supercharger discharge and the

forward mounting plate. (See Fig. 13C)

Continue routing the oil feed hose to the lower

driver side area of the engine, passing it rearward

between the alternator and the engine oil filter.

Use extra care to secure the hose away from

moving parts and sharp edges.

NOTE: Use only clean engine oil on the pipe threads.

Teflon tape or pipe sealant is not recommend-

ed as it might loosen and cause blockage of

the small oil feed orifice resulting in possible

supercharger failure.
