ANCILLARY PARTS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION

•     Low Temperature Radiator (LTR)

- #15405: Full Face Universal Fit

- #15406: Compact Universal Fit

- #15407: Compact, 16” x 16”, Universal Fit

•

    LTR/Intercooler Plumbing

•

    Fuel Pump - A minimum fuel flow of 75gph @ 60psi differential 

pressure is required.  It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure 

that adequate fuel flow is achieved at the operating voltage of the 

fuel pump.  Engine damage can occur if fuel flow is insufficient.

•    Fuel Pressure Regulator with Boost Reference.

GENERAL SUPERCHARGER PLUMBING INSTALLATION

- Determine the ideal mounting location for the intercooler heat 

exchanger (not included).  It is important that the heat exchanger 

receives the coldest air possible, which means mounting it in 

front of the radiator, A/C condenser and any oil or trans cooler the 

vehicle might have equipped.

- Determine the ideal mounting location for the water pump.  

A universal mounting bracket has been supplied to simplify 

installation.  

Please note that the pump should be mounted no 

higher than the inlet of the heat exchanger.  The inlet of the 

pump is in line with the axis of the pump motor, while the outlet 

extends out perpendicularly from the pump body.

- Determine the ideal mounting location for the intercooler reservoir 

tank.  To simplify installation, a universal mounting bracket and a 

groove around the perimeter of the tank, for use with a large worm 

clamp, have been included.  

NOTE:  Be sure to mount the tank as high as possible to prevent air 

bubbles from accumulating in the cooling system.

- Refer to the diagram on Page 3 for the suggested intercooler 

plumbing (not included).  Note that the intercooler routing can be 

inverted so that the pump and tank are mounted on the driver side.  

Regardless of component mounting locations, it is important that 

the correct direction of flow is maintained.

INTERCOOLER SYSTEM:  A 50/50 coolant and water mixture is 

required.  

GENERAL HARNESS INSTALLATION

- Determine the ideal mounting location for the relay and fuse 

holder on the water pump harness.  Connect the POSITIVE (+) lead  

to a CONSTANT +12V power source.  Connect the GROUND (-) lead 

to a chassis ground.  Connect the water pump connector to the 

electric water pump.  Connect the factory female EVAP connector 

to the male EVAP connector on the water pump harness.  Then plug 

the female end of the water pump harness onto the EVAP solenoid.  

- Install the ACT Harness to the ACT sensor on the rear of the 

PLEASE study these instructions carefully before beginning this installation.  If you have any questions, please call our Technical Hotline at:  

1-800-416-8628, 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Friday.

Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.  Improper installation will void the manufacturer’s 

warranty and may result in poor performance and engine or vehicle damage.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  

This instruction sheet provides general installation guidelines which can affect your warranty.  Read it carefully.  It is not our 

intent to cover each detail of installation here as the procedures are vehicle specific.  We want to caution you that installing an engine is a complicated 

procedure that requires a good general knowledge of automotive mechanics.  It is a good idea to refer to the factory service manual for your vehicle.  

If you are not confident that you can complete the engine installation successfully, we suggest you consider having it installed by an experienced 

mechanic.  

CAUTION:  This engine is NOT INTENDED for marine use.  Not legal for use in pollution controlled vehicles.

DESCRIPTION:  This crate engine is built using a Ford aluminum 5.0L block with a forged and balanced crankshaft, forged Manley 

H-Beam connecting rods and Mahle forged aluminum pistons which are then combined with Edelbrock’s E-Force Supercharger to 

produce 700 horsepower and 606 ft-lbs. of torque on 91 octane pump gas.  Its compact design allows for a seamless swap into most 

platforms, eliminating the need for modifications to your engine bay or hood.
