MANIFOLD: 

The Torker II manifold is designed for 289/302 c.i.d. small-block Ford V8 engines, and is recommended for street high

performance and race vehicles only.  The Torker II manifold is of single-plane design utilizing modern air flow technology.  It provides
good low rpm response plus increasing performance above the 5000 rpm range.  It also provides horsepower and torque increases
within the listed rpm range when used with any mix of aftermarket equipment available for vehicles operating within that range.  Will

not fit 255 c.i.d. Ford V8. Manifold height: same as OEM.

EGR SYSTEM:

This manifold will not accept stock EGR (exhaust gas recirculation equipment).  EGR systems are used on most 1972

and later model vehicles.  Check local laws for requirements.

INTAKE MANIFOLD

REFERENCE

RECOMMENDED GASKET

5021

(None)

Edelbrock #7220  Port:  1.20” x 2.00”, .060” Thickness

NOTE:  To ensure maximum performance and a proper seal, Edelbrock gaskets which are

specifically designed and manufactured for use with Edelbrock parts must be used.

BRACKETS:  

A throttle mounting adapter plate is supplied with each manifold to adapt both early and later type throttle brackets to our

manifolds, as shown in Figure 1.

GASKETS:

Do not use competition style intake gaskets for this street manifold.  Due to material deterioration over time, internal leakage

of vacuum, oil, and coolant may occur.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:  

On some applications when using a Performer or Holley carburetor, there may be an interference problem

with the stock air cleaner.  If this problem occurs, use the Edelbrock adapter, catalog #8092.  

CAUTION:

Check hood for clearance

before closing hood when using these spacers.
