GASKET SURFACE PREPARATION
CAUTION:
Replace all gaskets as recommended. Do not use race-type non-embossed gaskets for street applications. Due to material
deterioration under street driving conditions, internal vacuum and oil leaks may occur. We recommend Edelbrock gasket #7201 for kit #3527
and #7235 for kit #3528. Do not use Fel-Pro Permatorque Blue gaskets, which are designed for use on stock cast iron intake manifolds only.
1.
Check gaskets on head surface and manifold to make sure they are correct. Embossed side faces up
(
NOTE:
In some cases, there may be a
different right and left side gasket. Make sure both are placed correctly.).
2.
Coat head surface and both sides of gaskets with Edelbrock Gasgacinch #9300.
3.
Apply Loctite 598 OEM High Temperature Silicone Gasket around water passages on head surface.
4.
Gaskets and surface will become tacky to the touch within a few minutes. Carefully place gaskets on head surface, aligning ports and bolt
holes.
5.
Edelbrock recommends the use of Loctite 598 OEM High Temperature Silicone Gasket instead of end seal gaskets. Apply a 1/4-inch thick
bead of sealant across each end seal surface, overlapping the intake gasket at the four corners
(
NOTE:
Use the recommended silicon
sealer. Others may damage the O2 sensor. This method eliminates end seal slippage and deterioration. For ease of installation, we
recommend using Edelbrock Manifold Bolt and Washer Kit #8564.).
6.
Apply Edelbrock Gasgacinch #9300 to port surface of the manifold and to the head surfaces to ensure a good seal.
7.
Apply RTV gasket sealer around water passages on the manifold.
8.
Surfaces will become tacky to the touch within a few minutes.
INDUCTION SYSTEM INSTALLATION
1. Carefully position manifold and air valve on engine, centering bolt holes with the bolt holes in the head.
2. Apply thread sealer or Teflon tape to bolt threads where exposed to water or oil.
3. Hand tighten all bolts.
4. Torque all manifold bolts to 25 ft/lbs. Torque in the sequence illustrated.
5. Re-connect throttle linkage and springs, transmission, cruise control, and fuel lines. Check all linkage for smooth throttle operation from idle
to Wide Open Throttle.
Note: Do not install with a throttle rod, use a cable actuated throttle. See Throttle Cable Installation section for further details.
6. Re-tighten the valve cover bolts.
