2.4 Nitrous Feed Line Mounting
1. Determine the route your main nitrous feed line will follow. Ensure the path does not route the
nitrous feed line too close to the exhaust system, suspension, electrical lines/components or tires.
2. Attach nitrous supply line to bottle.
3. Feed nitrous line along proposed route.
4. Secure nitrous supply line to underside of vehicle.
Note: Stainless steel covering of the main nitrous feed line is very abrasive. Shield painted
components or sensitive system components like electrical, fuel lines, brake lines or suspension
components to prevent them from contacting main feed line. Rubber hose can be slid over and
retained as a chafe guard.
5. Leave nitrous line loose pending installation of nitrous solenoid.
2.5 Solenoid Mounting
Use the following procedures to install the Performer RPM nitrous solenoid and fuel solenoid.
Note: Remember to use Teflon paste only on pipe threads. Do not use Teflon tape.
Hint: Placement of the solenoid is often limited by the lack of possible mounting locations in the
engine compartment. However, if possible, observe the following suggestions:
Solenoid Safety Information
1. Keep solenoids and lines away from exhaust components.
2. Trial fit the solenoids with all lines attached to ensure a proper fit.
3. Solenoids may be mounted sideways or upside-down, if necessary.
2.5.1 Preparing To Mount Your Solenoids
1. Locate the universal solenoid brackets and solenoid mounting screws.
2. These solenoid brackets can be modified to clear almost any potental interference around
the carburetor/plate mounting surface. Please look at the pictures or potential solenoid
mounting locations and adapt your brackets according to the needs of your particular
application.

Pictured here is an unmodified Performer RPM solenoid bracket with a modified bracket with
solenoid attached, ready for installation on an intake manifold.
The modifications can be performed by clamping the solenoid bracket in a bench vise, or by using
wide jaw pliers.
