• EGR SYSTEMS: Edelbrock EGR-equipped Performer manifolds are intended as a direct functionally identical replacement for

their O.E.M. counterparts. All exhaust emissions or emissions related stock components are intended to be retained and

functional. Non-EGR equipped manifolds will not accept stock EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) equipment. EGR systems are

used on most 1972 and later model vehicles. Check local laws for requirements.

• AIR CLEANER: On some applications when using a Performer or Thunder Series carburetor, there may be interference with the

stock air cleaner. If this occurs, use Edelbrock adapter #8092, or Pro-Flo Air Cleaner #1221 (or equivalent). CAUTION: Check

for clearance before closing the hood when using this spacer or air cleaner. See “General Intake Manifold Installation

Instructions” for instructions on how to check the hood clearance.

• ACCESSORIES & INSTALLATION ITEMS: Major recommendations are listed below. See our catalog for details. To order a
