INSTALLATION
NOTE: There is a T-45 Torx bolt located at the front of the stock intake manifold. This bolt requires a special socket and will need to be
removed before removing the intake manifold
(See Fig. 1).
1) Use only recommended intake gaskets set when installing this intake manifold.
2) Fully clean the cylinder head intake flanges and the engine block end seal surfaces.
3) Apply Edelbrock Gasgacinch sealant P/N 9300 to both cylinder head flanges and to the cylinder head side of the gaskets, allow to air
dry, and attach the intake gaskets.
4) Do not use cork or rubber end seals. Use RTV silicone sealer instead. Apply a ¼" high bead across each block end seal surface,
overlapping the intake gasket at the four corners. This method will eliminate end seal slippage.
5) Install the intake manifold and hold-down bolts. Torque all of the manifold bolts in two steps by the sequence shown in Figure 2 to
25 ft/lbs.
