13. OIL FEED INSTALLATION (OIL-FED UNITS ONLy),
cont'd
E. Locate the OEM oil pressure sensor located just
above and behind the engine oil filter. (See Fig.
13E)
F. Disconnect the electrical connector from the OEM
oil pressure sensor and remove the sensor itself
by unthreading it from its 1/4" NPT port.
Temporarily plug the port, as a small amount of oil
may drain out.
G. Install the supplied 1/4" NPT TEE fitting into the
oil pressure sensor port and orient so one female
port faces upward and one faces outward.
H. Install the OEM oil pressure sensor into the
upward-facing port of the TEE. (See Fig. 13H)
I. Install the 1/4" NPT male x -4AN male 90° fitting
into the outward-facing port of the TEE. Orient to
point forward and slightly down. (See Fig. 13H)
J. Reconnect the electrical connector to the OEM oil
pressure sensor.
K. Connect the straight end of the previously-
installed -4AN braided hose to the -4AN male 90°
fitting installed into the TEE, routing the hose
between the alternator and oil filter. (See Fig.
13K)
L. Confirm that all oil feed fittings are secure and
that the hose is secured in a smooth path free of
kinks and away from moving parts and sharp
edges.

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.
