DESCRIPTION: Edelbrock Performer and Performer EPS intake manifolds are designed for 262-400 c.i.d. small-block Chevy engines operating in
the idle to 5500 rpm range. Performer RPM and RPM Air-Gap intake manifolds are designed for 262-400 c.i.d. small-block Chevy engines
operating in the 1500-6500 rpm range. In most cases, these manifolds accept late model water necks, air conditioning, alternator and H.E.I.
ignition systems. Any exceptions are listed in the “Applications” section below. Match Performer or Performer RPM intake manifolds with
recommended carburetors and additional equipment for even greater performance increases.

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 some 1972 and later model vehicles
and only in some states. Check local laws for requirements. Manifolds not equpped with EGR are not legal for use on any emissions controlled
vehicle where such equipment is required.
ACCESSORIES & INSTALLATION ITEMS: Major recommendations are listed below. However, due to the variety of years, makes and models
to be covered, please review each part listed in the Installation Items section of the Edelbrock catalog to decide whether more items are
required for your specific vehicle than are mentioned in these instructions. See our catalog for details. To order a catalog, call (800) FUN-

NOTES: Carburetor size (CFM) should be selected based on your specific engine combination. Consult your engine builder or
contact our Technical Hotline at: 1-800-416-8628 Monday - Friday, 7:00am to 5:00pm PST for assistance. Carburetors require a
#8008 or #8024 stud, washer and nut kit; determine proper length based on gasket thickness and your accessory mounting
requirements (See catalog for details). If a manual choke Performer Series Carburetor is used and electric choke is desired later on,
Performer Series carburetors can be converted to electric choke using Electric Choke Kit #1478. Manual choke Thunder Series
carburetors CAN NOT be converted to electric choke.
