3.
Locate the bottle assembly in the desired mounting location, ensuring that the location will provide easy access to the bottle valve,
hose connection, bracket clamp bolts to facilitate bottle changing and through hole of the blow-down tube.
Use the assembled bottle/bracket unit as a pattern to mark for drilling the holes. Drill four 11/32" holes in the mounting surface for
4.
the bottle bracket bolts. Make sure the holes are in a position that does not damage other components.
CAUTION!
When drilling or punching holes for these fasteners, be aware what components, wires, hoses or fluid reservoirs
are located or routed behind the general area to avoid vehicle or equipment malfunction.
Mount the brackets securely to the surface (recommended minimum of 5/16" bolts or No. 12 sheet metal screws).

6.
Secure the nitrous bottle in the mounting brackets and tighten the bracket clamps.
7.
Route the blow-down tube through the hole in the trunk, install and fasten to the fitting on the bottle valve.
2.4 Solenoid Fittings and Bracket Mounting
1.
Apply a small amount of PTFE thread sealant to the NPT threads of the nitrous filter fitting (blue 90° fitting with screen) and
insert into the IN side of the blue nitrous solenoid. Use a bench vise to tighten the fitting at least 1-1/2 turns after finger tight. See
Figure 4 for alignment.
2.
Apply a small amount of PTFE thread sealant to the NPT threads of the nitrous outlet fitting (small blue 90° fitting without screen)
and insert into the OUT side of the blue nitrous solenoid. Use a bench vise to tighten the fitting at least 1-1/2 turns after finger tight.
See Figure 4.

3.
Apply a small amount of PTFE thread sealant to the NPT threads of the fuel filter fitting (red 90° fitting with screen) and insert into
the IN side of the red fuel solenoid. Use a bench vise to tighten the fitting at least 1-1/2 turns after finger tight, Figure 5.
4.
Apply a small amount of PTFE thread sealant to the NPT threads of the red fuel fitting and insert into the OUT side of the fuel
solenoid. Use a bench vise to tighten the fitting at least 1-1/2 turns after finger tight, see Figure 5.
5.
Attach the solenoids to the bracket as shown in Figure 6. Set assembly aside to be used in Section 2.5, Step 9.
