Installation InstructionsCongratulations on selecting the best performing and best backed automotive

supercharger available today... the VORTECH® Supercharger!

Before beginning this installation, please read through this entire instruction booklet and the Street Supercharger System Owner's Manual which includes the Automotive Limited Warranties Program and the Warranty Registration form.Vortech supercharger systems are performance improving devices. In most cases, increases in torque of 30-35% and horsepower of 35-45% can be expected with the boost levels specified by Vortech Engineering. This product is intended for use on healthy, well maintained engines. Installation on a worn-out or damaged engine is not recommended and may result in failure of the engine as well as the supercharger. Vortech Engineering is not responsible for engine damage.Installation on new vehicles will not harm or adversely affect the break-in period so long as factory break-in procedures are followed.For best performance and continued durability, please take note of the following key points:

1. Use only premium grade fuel 91 octane or higher (R+M/2).2. The engine must have stock compression ratio.3. If the engine has been modified in any way, check with Vortech prior to using this product.4. Always listen for any sign of detonation (pinging) and discontinue hard use (no boost) until problem

is resolved.5. Perform an oil and filter change upon completion of this installation and prior to test driving your

vehicle. Thereafter, always use a high grade SF rated engine oil or a high quality synthetic, and change the oil and filter every 3,000 miles or less. Never attempt to extend the oil change interval beyond 3,000 miles, regardless of oil manufacturer's claims as potential damage to the supercharger may result.

6. Before beginning installation, replace all spark plugs that are older than 2 years or 20,000 miles with original heat range plugs as specified by the manufacturer and retard timing from factory specifications (follow the procedures indicated within the factory repair manual and/or as indicated on the factory underhood emissions tag). Do not use platinum spark plugs unless they are original equipment. Change spark plugs every at least 15,000 miles and spark plug wires at least every 50,000 miles.

ix

A. Disconnect the negative lead from the battery.

B. Loosen and remove the alternator, power steering pump and air conditioning pump v-belts.

C. Remove the stock crank pulley.D. If a charge cooled kit is being installed,

remove the battery from the vehicle. It will need to be relocated to the trunk using a battery relocation kit. Follow the instructions supplied with the battery relocation kit of your choice. (Vortech 8N150-010 may be used)

1. PREPARATION/REMOVAL

NOTE: If you have not changed the spark plugs in the last 15,000 miles, do so prior to the installation of this kit.

1

A. The supercharger uses engine oil for lubrication and must have an oil feed line connected to a filtered oil high pressure source on the engine.

B. Remove and set aside the 1/8 NPT oil pressure sending unit from the engine block (located on the rear passenger side of the engine).

C. Install the supplied 1/8 NPT nipple into one end of the supplied female TEE and the oil pressure sender into the opposite end. Install the assembly into the engine block.

D. Attach the supplied –4 fitting into the side of the installed TEE. Attach the braided oil feed line to the installed fitting (See Fig. 2-a). Secure the hose with the tie wraps provided, routing it away from exhaust heat, chaffing and sharp objects. Temporarily cover the open end from debris until the connection is made to the supercharger.

2

2. OIL FEED INSTALLATION

NOTE:Use clean engine oil on the pipe threads. Teflon tape or pipe sealant is NOT recommended as it might loosen and cause blockage of the small oil feed orifice resulting in supercharger failure.

Fig. 2-b

3

3. OIL DRAIN INSTALLTION

Fig. 3-a

A. To provide an oil drain for the supercharger, it is necessary to make a hole in the oil pan. Locate and mark the hole location. (See Fig. 3-a, 3-b or 3-c, depending on which side of the engine the supercharger will be mounted on.

B. Remove any paint from around the hole area.

C. Use a small center punch to perforate the pan and expand the hole. Switch to a larger diameter punch and expand the hole to about 9/16”. Most punches are made from hexagonal material and may be placed in a socket with an extension to make this procedure easier.. Use caution so that the hole is no enlarged too much and that the punch does not contact the engine internals.

D. Tap the hole with a 3/8” NPT tap approximately ¼” deep. Pack the flutes of the tap with heavy grease to hold the chips. Use a small magnet to check for any stray chips.

E. Thoroughly clean the threaded area. Apply a small amount of silicone sealant to the new threads. Apply more sealant to the supplied 3/8”NPT x ½” barb and secure in the previously threaded hole. Make sure a seal is formed all around the fitting.

F. Drain the engine oil, install a new filter and refill with fresh oil.

NOTE: This method of rolling over the lip of the hole and tapping works very well if carefully done and should cause no problems.

NOTE: Removal of the oil pan may ease oil drain fitting installation on some applications.

4. FUEL SYSTEM INSTALLATION

A. Remove the fuel lines from the fuel pump and remove pump from vehicle.

B. Drill and tap the vent hole located in the side of the fuel pump. If the hole is tapped to 1/16”NPT, a 3/16” hose barb fitting (P/N: 7P062-187) may be installed.

C. Plug any additional fuel pump vent holes.D. Re-install the fuel pump.E. Run a boost pressure line from the

carburetor enclosure to the top of the fuel pump diaphragm. The end of the bulkhead fitting that is inside the enclosure should be left open.

NOTE:A stock fuel pump may be satisfactory for mild engines. The following steps will allow the mechanical pump to increase fuel pressure in proportion to boost pressure. (I.E.: stock fuel pressure = 5psi @ 0psi boost/ supercharged fuel pressure = 12psi @ 7psi boost.) If fuel pressure is not maintained at least 4 psi above boost pressure, replace the stock fuel pump with a higher flow unit. Alternatively, a system utilizing an electric fuel pump may be used as long as the regulator is boost referenced.

5.1 DRIVER-SIDE SUPERCHARGER BRACKET INSTALLATION(FOR PASSENGER SIDE SUPERCHARGER MOUNT, SKIP TO SECTION 5.2)

A. Remove the alternator bracket and power steering pump brackets from the engine. Clean the front of the cylinder head so that the mounting plate will sit flat when installed.

B. Install the Primary mounting plate using the four .972” long spacers and 1.75” flat socket head cap screws.

C. If vehicle is equipped with power steering, install the power steering pump mounting bracket along with the factory front mounting plates to the supercharger primary plate using the supplied 3/8 x 4.25" bolts and spacers.

D. Attach the supercharger mounting plate to the primary plate using the 3.2” spacers and 3/8 x 4.25” bolts.

6. SUPERCHARGER INSTALLATIONA. Attach the oil drain line to the supercharger

and secure using one of the #8 hose clamps provided.

B. Lower the supercharger onto the mounting plate installed on the engine.

C. Loosely start the 3/8” X 1 1/4” bolts with washers through the mounting plate and into the supercharger gear case. Tighten in steps.

D. Attach the oil drain line to the fitting previously installed in the oil pan and secure using the supplied #8 hose clamp.

E. Install the 1/8 NPT X –4 90º fitting into the oil feed fitting using oil to lubricate the threads. Attach the oil feed hose to this fitting and tighten.

Fig. 6-dDriver side shown (Passenger side similar)

NOTE: The oil drain hose must maintain a "Downhill" routing always. "Uphill routing", dips, kinks or restrictions in the drain hose may cause supercharger seal failure

NOTE: Some applications (depending on intake manifold height) may require the reclocking of the supercharger volute. If reclocking is required for your application, loosen and remove the six ¼-20 cap screws and retaining plates that hold the compressor housing (volute) to the gearcase. If the compressor housing does not rotate freely relative to the gearcase, DO NOT FORCE IT. SERIOUS SUPERCHARGER DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. The machined mating surfaces are designed to prevent pressurized air from escaping and have minimal tolerances. If the housing will not move or is very tight, contact Vortech Engineering immediately at (805) 247-0226 and ask for our service department for further assistance.

8

7. CRANK PULLEY, SUPERCHARGER PULLEY AND BELT INSTALLATION

A. For 1964-1967 vehicles with a 6 bolt damp-er, place the crank pulley spacer onto the damper oriented so that the pilot on the damper centers the spacer. (For later vehi-cles with a 4 bolt damper, the spacer is not used).

B. Place the v-belt crank pulley onto the spac-er (or damper) and secure using the original number of the supplied bolts.

C. Place the supplied 10 rib supercharger crank pulley onto the v-belt pulley. Install using the four 3/8 x 1.25” bolts and wash-ers supplied.

D. If the supercharger did not come with a pulley already installed, lightly grease the supercharger input shaft and/or the super-charger drive pulley bore. Install the pulley onto the supercharger input shaft and rotate the pulley to align the keyway. Slide the square key into the keyway. Install the pulley retainer assembly into the input shaft and hand tighten.

Note: The crank pulley assembly supplied with this kit is designed to work on 389 and 400 cubic inch engines. For this reason, pay close attention to fitment during installation.

Note: If the supercharger drive pulley will not slide onto the shaft, DO NOT FORCE IT. Light heating of the supercharger pulley with a propane torch will aid installation.

Note: Check vehicle for radiator fan to crank pulley clearance. If there is interference, either space the fan forward or replace it with a low profile electric fan.

Fig. 7-a

8. BELT AND BELT TENSIONER INSTALLATION

A. Due to the various pulley diameters and accessory locations, belts for the factory accessories will need to be sourced independently. Installing the belts that were removed, and marking or cutting them to the desired length, before purchasing new belts, may most easily accomplish this.

B. Install all of the accessory drive belts.C. Loosely install the supercharger belt

tensioner plate onto the face of the supercharger using 12mm x 20mm bolts and washers.

D. Install the supercharger belt around the supercharger and crank pulleys.

E. Install the supplied smooth idler and spacer onto the belt tensioner plate using 12mm hardware.

F. Rotate the belt tensioner assembly until the belt is tight and tighten the bolts.

G. Tighten the supercharger pulley retainer assembly to 35 ft/lbs if pulley was not installed at Vortech.

9. CARBURETOR ENCLOSURE INSTALLATION

A. Remove the carburetor from the intake manifold and thoroughly clean the intake manifold carburetor flange. Remove all throttle linkage brackets from the intake manifold.

B. Replace the carburetor studs in the intake manifold with those supplied and install a carburetor gasket.

C. Install the supplied 1/4npt x 3/8” 90º barb fitting into the rear of the carburetor enclosure and orient so that it will point towards the driver side.

D. Install the lower part of the carburetor enclosure over the studs until it sits flat on the intake manifold. (An extra carburetor base gasket is included that may be stacked between the enclosure and the intake if there is a minor clearance problem or used with a spacer if more clearance is needed).

E. Install a carburetor gasket on the carburetor mounting surface.

F. Test fit the carburetor in the enclosure and bend the throttle arm if it contacts any part of the enclosure from idle to wide open throttle positions. Remove carburetor.

G. Install a vacuum cap over the PCV barb fitting (if equipped) on the base plate of the carburetor and secure with a small tie-wrap or clamp. Attach short lengths of hose to any necessary remaining vacuum sources on the base plate of the carburetor. These hoses will later be connected to a bulkhead fitting and run from there to the necessary accessory.

H. Install the carburetor and secure with four 5/16” nuts and washers.

Note: Due to the many possible configurations of intake manifolds (with regard to carburetor flange height), if hood interference is a problem, a lower profile intake manifold may be required. Factory 4-barrel intake manifolds as well as the Edelbrock “Performer” have been verified to fit. The Edelbrock “Performer RPM” intake is too tall to work on a 1965 GTO with carburetor enclosure.
