Questions about the LSJ m62 supercharger...

I tried to do a search, but failed to turn up any results.

What I am trying to find out specifically is this:

What controls the bypass valve on the supercharger?
What piece specifically?
Is it vacuum controlled?

Basically, what I am looking to do is to adapt this supercharger to work on another car, however I need to bypass to work, so I'm trying to see how to actuate it.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

In another vehicle you'd leave the bottom nipple on the bypass valve open, with nothing on it. You would connect the top nipple to the SC. It would then be vacuum controlled.

Like that: Bypass vacuum canister is operated with the vacuum behind the throttle. TB closed, high vacuum, bypass open. TB opens, vacuum less, bypass closes and boost builds.
