• 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.
• CAMSHAFT: Edelbrock Performer-Plus camshafts are ground specifically for use with the corresponding Performer manifold on engines operat-
ing between idle and 5500 rpm. The Performer 5.0 EFI manifold #3821 and Performer-Plus hydraulic roller lifter camshaft #3722 are designed to
work as a team to give you better driveability and street performance. They are dyno-matched and street-proven. For best results, use the
Edelbrock manifold/camshaft package with the Throttle Body/EGR Plate and headers we recommend. The Performer-Plus hydraulic roller lifter
camshafts are designed for use with stock or Edelbrock Performer aluminum cylinder heads. Edelbrock Performer-Plus cam #3722 is street legal
in all 50 states, E.O. #D-215-14.
NOTE: Maximum performance is achieved only when the Edelbrock Performer 5.0 EFI Power Package components are used with the following
equipment:
•
Performer 5.0 EFI manifold/camshaft/timing set/valve springs
•
Edelbrock/BBK 70mm Throttle Body #3825 and EGR Plate #3828
•
Tubular Exhaust System #6845 or #7945 (1986-93 Mustangs only)
•
Edelbrock RPM Series Cat-back Exhaust System #5645 (1987-93 Mustang GT) or #5646 (1986 Mustang GT and 1986-93
Mustang LX)
• 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 com-
plete 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 REINSTALLATION, 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 your dealer immediately).
