While running oil lines I noticed the nozzle has different threads than the A-Trim. The SC is 1/8npt.
Is using the nozzle a must?
If so, then what fitting am I missing?
All the pics that can be found show the nozzle screwing directly into the SC.

Called Vortech and they claimed EVERY supercharger and EVERY nozzle they sell is 1/8NPT!
This is NOT a 1/8npt fitting!:angry:
Pipe Thread is tapered and of a much finer pitch than Vortech's nozzles.:sprites:
thats the sprayer... its PROPRIETARY to vortech.. the INLET to it is 1/8npt.. you need to purchase the sprayer from VORTECH ONLY

The pic is the Vortech sprayer/nozzle! Linked to their site.
It is identical to the units sold on Superchargersonline.com and is just like the one I have.
They are not 1/8NPT! Possibly the pic is generic?:notagree:
BTW, Vortech lists the Stainless Steel replacement for $26.95...much less than the brass.
I ordered the SS from Vortech along with an idler pulley.
I'll update this when the order arrives.:straight:

And the answer is...
The threads are a 'crush fit.' Once the nozzle is screwed in the first time it becomes 1/8NPT.:straight:
Details details!:freaks:
About 80% done with my install....back to the garage.:teeth:
