To provide an oil drain for the supercharger,
it is necessary to make a hole in the front of
the oil pan.

Remove the oil dipstick retaining screw
from the passenger’s side valve cover brack-
et.

Drain the engine oil.

Remove the oil pan.

The hole should be centered .5" from the
bottom of the oil pan lip as shown. Use a
center punch to mark the hole location. Use
the supplied 9/16" rota-broach to drill the
hole.

Tap the hole with a 3/8"NPT pipe tap.

Thoroughly clean the threaded area and the
inside of the oil pan. Apply a small amount
of sealer to the new threads. Apply more
sealer to the supplied 3/8"NPT x 1/2" hose
barb fitting and secure in the hole. Make
sure a seal is formed all around the fitting.

***NOTE***

Clean and inspect the oil pan gasket. If it is in good

condition it can be used again.

Re-install the oil pan. Torque the fasteners to
95 in-lbs (11 N-m).

Install a new oil filter and refill the engine
with fresh oil.
