manifold tightening sequence diagram. Use the stock intake manifold bolts at the remaining bolt locations. Apply
motor oil to the intake manifold bolt threads. Carefully tighten the intake manifold bolts evenly in order per the
intake manifold tightening sequence shown in Figure 1. Tighten the intake manifold bolts 1-8 in the tightening
sequence to 25 ft-lbs. Tighten the intake manifold bolts 9-12 in the tightening sequence to 18 ft-lbs.
§ PREP AND TUNING FOR POWER:
The single plane intake manifold design may require changes in the carburetor jetting depending on individual
application, driving habits, engine condition, and vehicle use. Refer to your carburetor owner’s manual for tuning
instructions. For Edelbrock EPS carburetors #1407 & 1412 - use calibration kit #1480, for EPS carburetor #1411 - use
calibration kit #1489.
Aftermarket ignitions and aggressive advance curves are recommended with high-performance engine packages.
Total advance will vary with cylinder head design. Use modified (three-angle valve job, bowl blend, and port-matched)
stock heads for best results. Port match the manifold exits .020” per side smaller than the intake port openings in your
cylinder head.
§ CAMSHAFT AND HEADERS:
The Torker 351C intake manifold is compatible with aftermarket camshafts and headers designed to work in the 3000-
7000 rpm range. Recommended compression ratio is 9.5 to 1 and above. Follow your header manufacturer’s
recommendations for header designs. Use of aftermarket headers, camshafts, or both, with an Edelbrock Torker
351C manifold may lean carburetor calibration. Should this occur, recalibrate with a richer jet.
