Default More Vortech Q's with illustrations.

Just want to make sure I get this right.


A. Is the oil return port.
E. Is the other end that goes into oil pan.

G. Little red hose goes from B. to C.

H. Goes on fitting above oil filter for feed line.
I. Long red hose goes from D. to H.

Don't know where F. goes.

Thanks

F is the Power steering fitting that is held in by a Y looking fitting that bolts to the Power seering bracket. Its not associated with the oil supply and return for th S/C.

Like GMS said you are corect on the rest I can't understand why someone would cut the hose clamps off of all the hoses???Just take the supply fitting loose and make sure there isn't any trash in it cause it will kill the oil supply to the bearing on the S/C if it gets plugged up pretty comon on those setups when people don't check that stuff and wonder why it only lasted 3K miles. When you are installing it blow all the hoses clean before installing them. It has an orfice hole in it pretty small so it just unscrews and you can take it apart and inspect clean and reinstall. Doesn't look like they uninstalled that kit very nice from the looks of the cut hose on the PS piece.

In this pic does anyone know where that hose goes (about 1.5 ft long) to or what that bracket is for?
Also, do those bolts look like the ones for the supercharger balancer that go into the dampner?
Just trying to see what bolts I have missing so I can get them before install.

The bracket is for your reservoir that goes in the fender on the passanger side. It mounts with the stock OEM bolts. The hose goes from the back of the intake duct to your valve cover. To help with crank case.

Yes the bolts go to the balancer. The short ones hold the blower lower pulley and the long ones go thru the blower/balancer to bolt the AC pulley. How good are you at wrenching?

Ha, I wondered if someone would ask that. I'm ok. I've done a heads, cam, elec wp, and lt headers on my last LT1 and I've done some work on a 300zx.
I was a 63b (light wheel mechanic) in the army.

Thanks for the help.
