Driver's Side Renegade Supercharger System

This product is intended for use on healthy, well maintained
racing engines. It is recommended by Vortech that an after-
market (SVO) high strength engine block and cylinder heads
(TFS, Edelbrock, World Products, etc.) be used. An "O-ringed"
cylinder head-to-block seal is also suggested. Installation on
a worn-out or damaged engine is not recommended and may
result in failure of the engine as well as the supercharger.
Before beginning this installation, please read through this
entire instruction booklet and the Vortech Race Super-
charger System Owner's Manual. Other available pieces
designed for use:

To determine the proper supercharger pulley(s), use this
formula:*
Vortech Crank/Supercharger Support Strut:** 4FA110-020
Reduces crank snout side-loading. (Places the super-
charger load onto the crankshaft main bearing centerline
and cancels out the load generated by the drive belt
between the crank and supercharger pulleys.)
Reduces supercharger input bearing load and wear.
Eliminates the possibility of supercharger plate flex.
* Refer to the Vortech racing supercharger system owner's
manual for each individual supercharger's specifications.
** Not required for kit function although strongly
recommended by Vortech.
