40. Locate the small coolant fitting extending vertically
from the thermostat housing. Use an deep 10mm socket
with a drive extension, gently bend this fitting roughly 5°
outboard so that it will clear the supercharger manifold.
41. Using a Dremel with a cutoff wheel attachment, or
equivalent, trim the two (2) back valve cover tabs on the
passenger side and the two (2) front tabs on the driver side.
Then carefully vacuum out any debris with a shop-vac.
Remove protective tape from cylinder ports.
42. Using an 8mm socket, remove the ignition coils to
access the spark plugs. Remove all eight (8) spark plugs
with a 5/8" spark plug socket and gap them to .034". Apply
anti-seize to the threads of the spark plugs and reinstall.
Torque spark plugs to 9 ft-lbs., then reinstall the ignition
coils.

Part #1584, 15840
Edelbrock Supercharger System
NOTE: Because of the placement of the motor and the
height of the Edelbrock supercharger, the supercharger
must be disassembled and installed in three parts. Please
follow Steps 43-58 carefully as the supercharger can not be
installed as an assembled unit.
43. Mark the actuator rod where it goes into the actuator
body so that it can be reinstalled in the same position. Then
remove the hose from the actuator and unbolt the actuator
from the manifold and remove.
NOTE: Actuator hose can remain installed on the manifold.
Be careful not to pinch or damage the actuator hose.
44. Remove the driver side fuel rail from E-force manifold
using a 10mm socket.
45. Using a 4mm Hex, remove four (4) shoulder bolts
securing the runners to the E-force manifold. Bolts are
located on the bottom corners of both runners. Set shoulder
bolts aside as they will be reused later.
