DESCRIPTION
The Edelbrock Performer 3-piece intake manifold is designed for street high performance use
with Edelbrock Twin Cam EFI Performer RPM heads only. This intake manifold is designed to
®
make excellent power increases in the stock rpm range of fuel injected, Harley-Davidson
®
Twin Cam engines (idle to 6000 rpm). This manifold and heads feature a rectangular shaped
intake port for a noticeable increase in air flow. This .125" raised rectangular intake port also
helps to increase the velocity of the incoming air for more power. This intake manifold can
only be used on Edelbrock heads because of the unique port shape. The Performer
manifold fits fuel injected Twin Cam 88 based motors with Edelbrock Performer RPM heads.
It is designed to accept the stock 44mm throttle body. NOTE: A 4mm ball end Allen wrench
or 4mm ball end Allen driver is required to properly tighten the throttle body mounting screws.
