Congratulations on selecting the best performing and best backed automotive
supercharger available today... the VORTECH® V-1® Supercharger!
Before beginning this installation, please read through this entire instruction booklet and the Owner's Manual which includes the Vortech V-1 Supercharger Limited Warranty, the Care & Feeding Guide, and the Extended Service Program & Application Form.
Vortech supercharger systems are performance improving devices. In most cases, increases in torque of 30 to 35% and horsepower of between 35 and 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 92 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 1 year or 10,000 miles with original heat
range plugs as specified by the manufacturer and reset timing to 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 15,000 miles and spark plug wires every 50,000 miles or earlier.
TOOL & SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Factory repair manual Timing light 3/8" drive and socket set: SAE and metric 1/2" drive and socket set: SAE and metric 3/8" NPT tap, 3/8-16 tap and handle Adjustable wrench Open end wrenches: 5/16", 3/8", 7/16", 1/2", 9/16" Center punch and a 5/8" tapered punch 3/8" fuel fitting disconnect tool 5 quarts SF rated quality engine oil, oil filter, and wrench Flat #2 screwdriver Phillips #2 screwdriver Heavy grease Silicone sealer Drill motor 3/32" drill bit Oil sender socket, Snap-on

1. PREPARATION/REMOVAL A. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
B. Remove the accessory drive belt. C. Remove the belt tensioner assembly and separate it from
the mounting bracket and set aside.
D. Disconnect and remove the crankcase breather hose. E. Remove the entire air filter assembly. F. Remove the radiator overflow reservoir and hose and set aside.
G. Remove the ignition coil and set aside.
2. OIL DRAIN A. To provide an oil drain for the supercharger, it is necessary
to make a hole in the oil pan. The best way to provide this hole is to punch the hole rather than drill. This tried and true method has been used successfully since the early days of turbocharging.
B. Rotate the engine until the mark on the damper is aligned
with the TDC (top dead center) tag on the front of the engine. To aid you in this, remove the distributor cap and watch the ignition rotor. It should end up between #5 and #7 electrodes as shown in the graphic.
C. Temporarily detach the anti-roll bar (sway bar) strap mounts
at the frame and lower the bar out of the way.
D. Locate and mark hole per diagram. Remove paint around
the hole area. Layout the hole center per the diagram.
E. 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.
F. Tap the hole with a 3/8" NPT tap approximately 1/4" deep.
Pack the flutes of the tap with heavy grease to hold chips. Use a small magnet to check for any stray chips.
IGN. ROTOR
TDC
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.
G. 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 fitting and secure in hole. Make sure a seal is formed all around the fitting.
H. Drain engine oil and change filter. Reattach
anti-roll bar mounts.
I. The drain hose will be attached to the fitting in later steps.
If your installation is going to be over several days we suggest that you cover the fitting to protect it from dirt.

3. RADIATOR OVERFLOW RESERVOIR A. Disconnect and remove the coolant recovery
reservoir and hose.
B. Locate the new reservoir as shown in the
photo so that it is approximately one inch above the frame. Mark and drill a 3/16" hole through the fan shroud and secure with the fastener provided.
C. Cut two inches from the stock hose and use
fitting to adapt the clear hose to the radiator overflow fitting. Connect the clear hose from the radiator overflow fitting to the reservoir.
RESERVOIR
4. MAIN MOUNTING BRACKET AND PLATE A. It is necessary to provide clearance
between the dipstick and accessory drive belt. Remove the bolt holding the dip stick tube. Hold the tube about two inches and gently bend rearward about an inch. With the new fastener resecure.
B. Mount the cast aluminum main
mounting bracket on the front of the engine's right cylinder head using the fasteners provided, as shown.
C. Please note that the 3-3/4" bolt also
ATTACH TO EXHAUST MANIFOLD
holds the supercharger mounting plate. This fastener must be threaded into its hole loosely as a pilot while securing the cast bracket with the other two,
5/16-18 x 3-1/2"
/16-18 X 3.5
then removed for installation of the supercharger mounting plate.
D. Attach the stock belt tensioner to the
front of the supercharger mounting plate as shown. Make sure the indexing tab is engaged in the slot.
E. Now secure the plate and tensioner as
an assembly to the cast bracket.
F. Attach the support strut between the
supercharger mounting plate and the second exhaust manifold stud. If you have installed headers, you will need to make a longer tube spacer to make up the difference between the header and manifold thickness. Secure with the stainless steel bolt.

5. SUPERCHARGER MOUNTING A. Attach the oil drain hose to the
drain fitting on the bottom of the supercharger and secure with the clamp provided. Make sure to position the clamp housing to the side so that it does not interfere with the mounting plate.
B. Set the supercharger in place on
the plate and secure with the five 3/8-16 x 1" bolts and washers.
C. Attach the plastic idler pulley to
the inner most threaded boss on the supercharger using the large washer as a spacer in between as shown.
6. SUPERCHARGER/ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT A. The new longer accessory drive
belt is routed the same as the original belt except for accommodation of the supercharger an idler pulley.
B. Route the belt around the outside
of the supercharger drive pulley then around the inside of the idler as shown.
C. The stock tensioner is used as
originally intended in its relocated position.
NOTE: This drive belt is custom made for Vortech and is obtainable as a spare; however, should an emergency arise, a Gates P/N K060113 six rib belt may be used temporarily.

7. OIL FEED LINE A. Disconnect and remove the oil pressure sender
from the engine. The sender is found at the rear of the intake manifold to the right side of the distributor.
B. Install the supplied tee fitting into the block and
place the sending unit in the upper end. Install the union fitting in the side port and orient the assembly so that it points rearward and slightly outward towards the passenger seat. Reconnect the pressure sender connector.
NOTE: It is essential that the super­charger oiling orifice not be plugged; therefore, do not use Teflon tape or other sealant that could possibly cause blockage. Use engine oil.
C. Attach the preassembled red oil hose onto the
fitting. Route the hose forward along the inside of the right valve cover. Be careful not to rest the oil hose or ignition wires on the EGR tube at the rear of the head.
D. Before connecting the other end of the hose to the
supercharger, briefly crank over the engine in order to purge the line of oil and remove any contaminants from the line. Use a drain pan or coffee can to catch the oil.
E. Place the 45° union fitting into the supercharger
fitting. Connect the hose to the 45° fitting.

13. IGNITION/BOOST CONTROL UNIT OPERATION A. The Ignition/Boost Control unit
is designed to retard ignition in relation to boost.
B. The unit is adjustable from 0° of
ignition retard to 4°of ignition retard for each pound of boost, up to a maximum of 20°
C. Using the middle position (knob
pointing straight up) as a starting place, adjust the ignition retard knob until just beyond the point of detonation. Use third gear for testing in a safe area or road. Adjust the retard according to changes in altitude and fuel quality.
Caution: It is extremely important that the boost retard never be turned to 0° using pump fuel. It is recommended that in stock street applications, the knob be at no less than 1°/lb.
