This product is protected by state common law, copyright and/or patent. All legal rights therein are reserved. The design, layout, dimensions, geometry, and engineering features shown in this product are the exclusive property of Vortech Engineering, Inc. This product may not be copied or duplicated in whole or part, abstractly or fundamentally, intentionally or fortuitously, nor shall any design, dimension, or other information be incorporated into any product or apparatus without prior written consent of Vortech Engineering, LLC.
This Vortech 5.0 supercharger kit was designed for installation and use on Mass Air Flow (MAF) equipped vehicles. The model years include 1988 California and all 1989-1993 models. All other years not equipped with MAF systems (factory or aftermarket) require the installation of a MAP sensor check valve assembly (Vortech part number 4FD113-010). This allows proper function of early (1986-1988) models equipped with speed density processors.
RENEGADE 5.0L KIT
The factory water pump pulley may require removal and replacement with an aftermarket unit for proper supercharger drive belt clearance. Also, an aftermarket electric fan is recommended, although the factory mechanical fan may still be retained with minor clearance modications.
1993 5.0 L COBRA APPLICATIONS
Underdrive crank pulley P/N 4FA018-022 and FMU calibration kit P/N 6Z170-040 may be required and are not included in this system. Please call your Vortech sales representative for details.

FORD 5.0L MUSTANG
Installation Instructions
Congratulations on selecting the best performing and best backed automotive supercharger available today...
50 State Smog Legal, as per CARB EO #D-213-17 (not applicable to P/N: 4FA218-100/108)
the VORTECH® supercharger!
Before beginning this installation, please read through this entire instruction booklet and the Street Supercharger System Owner's Manual (Race Owner's Manual for the Renegade kit) which includes the Limited Warranty Program, the Warranty Registration form and return envelope.
1986-93 RENEGADE 5.0L MUSTANG KIT ONLY 4FA218-100/108
IMPORTANT NOTE: This kit does not supply any of the required fuel and ignition system support assemblies. This kit was designed for racing/off-road use only.
IGNITION: An ignition amplication unit will be required above 10 psig manifold pressure. Crane HI-6/7 or MSD 6/7 are the most popular choices. A high output coil is also suggested. Spiral core, low resistance, suppression spark plug wires will also be required. Vortech part number 5A002-005 is a 10.4mm premium wire set manufactured by Taylor, with pre-cut lengths for the 5.0 Mustang.
FUEL SYSTEM: A high output fuel system will be required when horsepower levels reach approximately 400 or above. Vortech produces a variety of fuel system combinations including the Maxow Renegade system which is a complete fuel system from the tank pickup to the fuel rails and will support up to 1000 hp (wiring harness is included).
Vortech supercharger systems are performance improving devices. In most cases, increases in torque of 30-35% and horsepower between 35-45% can be expected with the boost levels specied 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 modied 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 re-
solved.
5. Perform an oil and lter 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 lter at least every 3,000 miles. 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 1 year or 10,000 miles with original
heat range plugs as specied by the manufacturer and reset timing to factory specications (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 15,000 miles and spark plug wires at least every 50,000 miles.

A. To provide an oil drain for the supercharger, it is necessary
to make a hole in the oil pan. Locate and mark hole per diagram. It is best to punch the hole rather than drill.
B. Remove paint around the hole area. C. Use a small center punch to perforate the pan and expand
hole. Switch to a larger diameter punch and expand the hole further to approximately 9/16" diameter. Most punches are made from hexagon material and may be placed in a socket with an extension to make this procedure easier.
D. Tap the hole with a 3/8" NPT tap approximately1/4" deep.
Pack the utes of the tap with heavy grease to hold chips. Use a small magnet to check for any stray chips.
NOTE: This method of rolling over the lip of the hole and
tapping it works very well if carefully done and should cause no problems.
E. Thoroughly clean the threaded area. Apply a small amount
of silicone sealer to the new threads. Apply more sealer to the 3/8" NPT hose tting and secure in hole. Make sure a seal is formed all around the tting.
F. Drain the engine oil and change the lter.

7. MAIN BRACKET ASSEMBLY
Assemble the main bracket, plate and other parts necessary to relocate the alternator and smog pump and make room for the supercharger. For 1992 and later vehicles, please review points A through H before
starting.
A. Measure the length of the pivot boss on
the alternator and record. It should be very close to 3".
B. In a similar manner, measure the boss on
the smog pump. When combined with the .920" spacer, it should be 4.050". Record these measurements so that in the event of a belt alignment problem, Vortech can properly advise you.
1986-93 S.H.O./RENEGADE
V-7 KITS ONLY
NOTE: The upper mounting bolt boss
on the smog pump (if equipped) requires grinding to allow for tment of the V-7 compressor (see Fig. 7-b).
C. Place the smog pump and alternator on
the large aluminum mounting bracket as shown. After making sure the 6 1/4" bolts have a washer on them, enter the cast mounting bracket from the rear (coming towards you). Place the .920" tube spacer over the bolt on the smog pump. Lower supercharger mounting plate over bolts. The idea is to sandwich the alternator and smog pump between the mounting bracket and plate. Place washers and nuts on the 6-1/4" bolts and nger tighten. For vehicles equipped with alternators having larger 7/16" pivot bolts, it will be necessary to enlarge the corresponding hole in the plate.
D. Start the 3/8-16 x 1" fastener with a washer
at the top of the bracket and nger tighten. Insert the 6-1/2" and 7" bolts. These bolts will later hold assembly to engine.

WARNING: Do not attempt to operate the vehicle until
ALL components are installed and ALL operations are completed including the nal check.
17. FINAL CHECK
A. Reconnect the battery. B. If your vehicle has gone over 10,000 miles
since its last spark plug change, you will need to change the spark plugs now before
test driving the vehicle.
C. Check all ttings, nuts, bolts and clamps
for tightness. Pay particular attention to oil and fuel lines around moving parts, sharp edges and exhaust system parts. Make sure all wires and lines are properly secured with clamps or tie wraps.
D. Check all uid levels, making sure that
your tank is lled with 91 octane or higher fuel before commencing test drive.
E. Visually inspect the fan, belts and shroud
for clearance before running the vehicle. Pay special attention to the upper radiator hose-to-belt and pulley clearance.
F. Start engine and allow to idle a few minutes,
then shut off.
G. Recheck to be sure that no hoses, wires,
etc. are near exhaust headers or moving parts and for signs of any uid leakage. Check ignition timing to make sure it is set to stock specications before commencing
test drive.
H. PL EASE TAK E SPECI A L NO TE:
Operating the vehicle without ALL the subassemblies completely and properly installed may cause FAILURE OF MAJOR
COMPONENTS.
I. Test drive the vehicle. J. The supercharger drive belt stretches
initially and will require adjustment between 250 and 400 miles.
K. Read the STREET SUPERCHARGER
SYSTEM OWNER'S MANUAL (RACE OW N E R ' S MA N U A L FO R TH E RENEGADE KIT) AND RETURN THE WARRANTY REGISTRATION FORM
within thirty (30) days of purchasing your supercharger system to qualify (Renegade systems are designed for racing and come with a standard 6 month warranty).
For internally lubricated V3 units only
This supercharger has been factory pre-lled with special Vortech synthetic lubricant. Oil does not need to be added to a brand new unit; however a uid level check should be performed.
Prior to operating the supercharger on the vehicle and after installation onto the vehicle:
Remove the factory installed at-head brass shipping plug (not the dipstick) from the top of the supercharger case. Replace the sealed shipping plug with the sup­plied “vented” plug. Do not operate the supercharger without it. Check the supercharger uid level.
Fluid level checking procedure:
1. Ensure that the .06” copper sealing washer
is located on the dipstick base.
2. Thread the clean dipstick into the unit until it seats.
3. Once the dipstick has seated, remove the dipstick from the unit. Fluid should register in the crosshatched area on the dipstick.
4. DO NOT OVERFILL!!! Drain excess uid from the unit if it is above the maximum level on the dipstick.
Check the uid level using the dipstick at least every 2,500 miles.
Initial supercharger uid change must be performed at 2,500 miles. The supercharger uid must be changed at least every 7,500 miles.
Drain the uid, rell the unit with 4 oz. of Vortech V3 lubricating uid and then conrm proper oil level using the dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL!!!
WARNING: Use of any other uid other than the
special Vortech lubricant will void the warranty and may cause component failure.
