TUBULAR EXHAUST SYSTEM: These components are designed as a system to improve the exhaust efficiency of the
Dodge 5.2L & 5.9L V8 engine. They are constructed of 409 HP stainless steel to better withstand the high heat present
with the fuel-injected engine, especially when used for towing or other heavy duty applications. The stainless steel used
for these systems is much more durable than mild steel, although it does not appear different in appearance. These
systems can be identified by the part numbers on each of the major components. Note that a magnet will stick to this
type of stainless steel; magnetic attraction is not a valid test for these systems. A performance gain can be expected by
the installation of the system. This system does require welding for installation (see note below) and retains all
O.E.M. emissions equipment.
Suggested Tools Needed for Installation: This vehicle has some metric fasteners.
❑ Mig welder (recommended) or gas welder - Professional welding is highly recommended.
❑ 3/8" rachet socket with extensions and universal 13mm and 15mm swivel sockets
❑ Combination set of open-end wrenches
❑ Hacksaw
❑ Jackstands, screwdrivers, pliers, crescent wrench, etc.
❑ Liquid penetrant, (GM #1052627) and anti-seize compound (GM #5613695)
SPECIAL NOTICE: This Edelbrock Tubular Exhaust System has received an Executive Order number (E.O.#) from the
California Air Resources Board (C.A.R.B.) making it legal for street use in all 50 states. To assist you with emission
equipment certification, we have included a silver fan shroud decal to help testing personnel verify that this part is a legal
replacement on the vehicle for which it is cataloged. The adhesive-backed decal should be affixed next to the existing
emission and engine specifications decal. Do not cover any part of your original emission decal.
WARNING: The use of "Thermal Wrap" or any aftermarket coating process will void the warranty on your Edelbrock
Tubular Exhaust Systems. Those products can cause excessive heat and moisture buildup resulting in corrosion and
failure of the system.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. High temperature spark plug wires and boots are recommended to withstand heat from T.E.S.
2. When installing this system on a truck equipped with a standard transmission, it may be necessary to do some
grinding on aluminum bellhousing. The first area is where the left side collector flange is. The other area is where
the left crossover pipe goes under the bellhousing. Only minor grinding may be needed to obtain better clerance
in these areas.
