Edelbrock 2122 Manual Del Usuario

PLEASE study these instructions carefully before installing your new camshaft. If you have any questions or problems, do not hesitate to call our
•
Technical Hotline at:1-800-416-8628, or e-mail us at edelbrock@edelbrock.com.
CAMSHAFT: Edelbrock Performer-Plus camshafts are ground specifically for use with the corresponding Performer manifold. The Performer
•
manifold #2121, and Performer-Plus camshaft #2122, are designed to work as a team to give you better driveability and performance. They are
dyno-matched and street-proven. For best results, use the Edelbrock manifold/camshaft package with the recommended carburetor and headers.
NOTE: Maximum performance is achieved when packages are used with a 4-bbl carburetor and headers, however packages may be used with
any of the following equipment:
• manifold/camshaft package only
• 1-5/8" headers
IMPORTANT: This instruction sheet provides general installation guidelines which can affect your warranty. Read it carefully. It is not our intent to
•
cover each detail of installation here; a step-by-step procedure manual would be far too lengthy. We want to caution you that installing a camshaft
is a complicated procedure that requires a good general knowledge of automotive engines. If you are not confident that you can complete the
camshaft installation successfully, we suggest you consider having it installed by an experienced mechanic.
CAUTION: Improper installation will result in LOW MILEAGE, POOR PERFORMANCE, COSTLY RE-INSTALLATION, and ENGINE DAMAGE. TO
AVOID THESE PROBLEMS YOU MUST DO THE FOLLOWING: Carefully study and understand all instructions. Examine the camshaft for possible
shipping damage (if damaged contact you dealer immediately).
