F.

Install the 3/8 x 2-3/4" bolt through the

mounting plate assembly and into the open

hole in the supercharger gear case. Install

the 3/8 x 2-1/4" bolt in the open hole at the

bottom of the supercharger plate and thread

into the primary plate. (See Fig. 6-c.)

G.

Install the 5/16" nut and washer on the A/C

stud and a 3/8" nut and washer on the lower

alternator stud.

*** NOTE ***

The front of the lower alternator stud is difficult to

reach. Try to start and thread on front nut by hand.

Final wrench tightening can be done on the rear nut

which is accessable.

H.

Install the supercharger belt onto the super-

charger pulley. Make sure that the 8-rib

grooved idler is seated square on the spacer

pilot and install a nut and washer on its

retaining bolt.

*** NOTE ***

In order to provide belt clearance to the shock tower
brace, the supercharger pulley may interfere with the
alternator pulley. Carefully check the following:

I.

Check the supercharger pulley nose to alter-

nator belt clearance. If necessary, lift the

supercharger assembly while tightening the

mounting plate fasteners. Tighten all of the

mounting plate assembly fasteners. Verify
that the nose of the supercharger pulley
is not touching the accessory drive belt.

J.

Loosen and then remove the previously

installed spring tensioner retract tool from

the supercharger mounting plate.

2-1/4" BOLT

K.

Route the free end of the oil feed hose to the

supercharger oil feed fitting

*** NOTE ***

Make sure there are no bends, kinks or dips in the oil

drain line. The hose must maintain a constant "down-

hill" routing. Restriction in the drain path may cause

seal leakage and/or supercharger failure

L.

Attach the free end of the oil drain hose to

the previously installed oil drain fitting in

the oil pan and secure with a #8 hose clamp

(cut hose for best fit).

M. Use zip-ties as necessary to secure the oil

drain and oil feed lines away from moving

parts.
