for those with the edelbrock performer intake manifold

You may have heard i recently purchased mine.. but i got setback do to unexpected financial problems, so i havnt had the time to purhcase all the gaskets and stuff to do a proper job.

but i did notice.. either i lost them or i never got them, but i didnt get the sheet with my intake manifold that has the torque specs and stuff on it.

any of you with thi manifold happen to have this paper ? i would like a copy of it.

i checked the edelbrock website and they dont have the papers their online format

I just installed one on my RS and if you are talking about the torque of the intake bolts, the sheet says to torque them all to 25ft-lbs. But you MUST torque them in a special sequence or the mainfold will not seat right and can cause leaks. I don't have a scanner so I don't know if I can help you out with the sheet. Good Luck!

just go like 10 lb ft first pas than go 20 than go 25. I do one on each side criss crossing. I am not sure of the exact sequence but a haynes manual will tell you. Any intake you buy can be torqued to 15 to 30 ft lbs. I go 25 and have never had leaks.

you want to set the final torque on the bolts toward the center first. Then criss-cross like Shifty said, working your way outwards.
