DESCRIPTION: Edelbrock race header components are designed to improve the exhaust efficiency of the F-body, 5.7L
LT1 engines. A performance gain can be expected with the installation of the system. These headers are intended for
racing applications and are not legal for use on pollution-controlled vehicles.

Suggested tools needed for installation: This vehicle has some metric fasteners.

❑ 3/8” ratchet socket set with extensions and a good assortment of metric & SAE sockets
❑ Combination wrenches (metric & SAE)
❑ Universal 12mm and 14mm swivel sockets
❑ Floorjack, jackstands, screwdrivers, pliers, crescent wrench, etc.
❑ Liquid penetrant (GM #1052627 or equivalent); anti-seize compound (GM #5613695 or equivalent)

WARNING: The use of "Thermal Wrap" or any aftermarket coating process will void the warranty

on your Edelbrock

Headers. Those products will cause excessive heat and moisture buildup resulting in corrosion and failure of the header.

NOTE: High Flow Race Y-Pipe #6571 or #65711 can be used with these headers.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: These race headers come with weld in A.I.R.
and EGR provisions. These can be installed if
desired or as needed to be legal for certain race
classes.
