Supercharger Installation Questions
Hello,
I'm about 85% done installing a 1st Gen supercharger that I got off ebay and have a couple questions.
The automatic transmission cable that connects to the throttle body doesn't seem to be long enough. It has to stretch to reach the throttle body. How do I fix this?
Also, the 1st gen SC (slightly used) came with a 2nd gen installation kit (brand new). Apparently the 1st gen used 2 170mm bolts and one that was around 140mm. There aren't any bolts that are that long included in the 2nd gen kit. Is this right? Where should I go about finding metric bolts that are that long? Thanks for any help.

For bolts, Home Depot, they have this bolt section (at least in my area) where it's so low to the ground your are squatting like about ready to take a dump! I am not going to insult your intelligence but obviously you should measure your pitch and based on that, you get a [pitch]mm x [length]mm type bolt.
On the throttle cable, there might be another way to route the line itself so it isn't stretching. I can't really tell you off hand without having a looksee, but that's my suggestion. See if not the line is caught on something.....hmm actually thinking about it should be directly to your cruise control from the TB. Can you take a picture?
