INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

PLEASE study these instructions carefully before beginning this installation. Most installations can be accomplished with common tools and procedures. However, you should be familiar with and comfortable working on your vehicle. If you do not feel comfortable performing this installation, it is recommended to have the installation completed by a qualified mechanic. If you have any questions, please call our Technical Hotline at: 1-800-416-8628, 7:00 am - 5:00 pm, Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Friday.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer. Improper installation will void your warranty and may result in poor performance and engine or vehicle damage.

DESCRIPTION: Edelbrock Performer Series Carburetor.s have been calibrated, factory flow-tested, and preset. These instructions also apply to carburetors featuring our EnduraShine™ finish. Please read all instructions prior to installation. For “Theory of Operation” and “Tuning Procedures”, see the accompanying carburetor Owner’s Manual. These are non-emissions carburetors, check your local emissions laws.

ATTENTION: EDELBROCK CARBURETORS ARE NOT CALIBRATED FOR OR COMPATIBLE WITH ALCOHOL RACE FUEL OR E85 PUMP FUEL. USE OF ALCOHOL OR E85 IN YOUR EDELBROCK CARBURETOR WILL DAMAGE YOUR CARBURETOR AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY. THESE FUELS CAN ALSO DAMAGE OTHER FUEL SYSTEM COMPONENTS, UNLESS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR USE WITH ALCOHOL FUELS.

NOTE: Edelbrock Performer Series carburetors are not for computer-controlled applications. That includes some 1981 & later GM vehicles with Q-Jet carburetor and some 1981 & later Ford vehicles with automatic overdrive (AOD) transmissions.

CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION

WARNING: WHEN WORKING AROUND GASOLINE, ALWAYS WORK IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA AND KEEP ALL OPEN FLAMES, SPARKS, AND OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION AWAY FROM THE WORK AREA. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

Replace fuel filter. Dirt (i.e. corrision residue or other debris) found in carburetor voids warranty.

Check and replace the air filter if necessary.

Check PCV valve and replace if clogged.

Check all hoses for leaks or cracks and replace if necessary.

Check fuel pump for proper operation. Replace if necessary.

Check the intake manifold and cylinder head gaskets for leaks and replace if necessary.

Check the ignition system: clean and gap or replace spark plugs, plug wires, and adjust ignition timing to proper specifications.

Chrome Steel Fuel Line Kit #8134 includes fuel filter.

Banjo Fuel Fitting #8089 (if required for air cleaner clearance).

Throttle Linkage Kits for Ford or Chrysler applications (See

Carburetor PREPARATION, Step #1)

Carburetor adapter, if carburetor is to be installed on other then square-bore intake manifold. See steps #4 and #5 for specific part numbers. Do not use a 4-bbl to 2-bbl adapter (Use Edelbrock carbs on intake manifolds designed for 4-bbl carburetors only!)

Universal Throttle Return Spring Kit #8005 (if original return spring cannot be reused).

Sockets/wrenches/tubing wrenches

Pliers

Hacksaw and/or tubing cutter

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

BEFORE REMOVING OLD CARBURETOR

1.Determine if the distributor vacuum port is timed (no vacuum at idle) or full (vacuum present at idle). With the engine at operating temperature and idling, pull the vacuum advance hose off of the carburetor and “feel” for vacuum by putting

your finger on the vacuum port (See Fig. 2). If your distributor has timed vacuum advance, you will hook the vacuum hose from the distributor to the passenger side vacuum port on the new carburetor. If it has full vacuum advance, it will be hooked up to the driver side port.

2.The stock steel fuel line must be converted to fuel resistant rubber hose. The stock steel line will not connect to the Performer Series Carburetor. Use Edelbrock Universal Fuel Line Kit #8135. This kit contains a filter, neoprene hose, and fittings to adapt to 5/16” or 3/8” stock steel fuel lines (See Fig. 3).

NOTE: After cutting the steel line, remove sharp edges and clean out any chips.

3.Always use a new fuel filter. Failure to do so will void your warranty.

4.You must use Edelbrock Adapter #2696 or Adapter & Fuel Line Kit #2697 when installing a Performer Series carburetor on a General Motors Quadrajet or Chrysler Thermoquad intake manifold. #2697 includes adapter #2696 and fuel line kit #8135.

Do not use an open adapter! (See Fig. 4)

Quadrajet Adapter Kit #2697 (Do not use an open adapter!)

5.You must use Edelbrock Adapter #2732 when installing a Performer Series carburetor on certain Edelbrock intake manifolds. In those applications, install the adapter as shown (See Fig. 5).
