SPECIAL NOTICE:
This Edelbrock part has received an Executive Order from the California Air Resources
Board (C.A.R.B.) making it legal for street use on pollution-controlled motor vehicles in all 50 states. To assist
you with emissions equipment certification, we have included a silver fan shroud decal to help testing personnel
verify that this part is a legal replacement part on the vehicle for which it is cataloged. The adhesive-backed
decal should be affixed to your fan shroud next to the existing emission and engine specification decal. Do not
cover your original equipment specification decal with the Edelbrock fan shroud decal.
WARNING:
The use of “Thermal Wrap” or any aftermarket coating process will void the warranty on your
headers. Those products can cause excessive heat and moisture buildup resulting in corrosion and early failure of
the system.
NOTE:
High temperature spark plug wires and boots are recommended to withstand heat from Headers.
