    This results in maximum airflow, with minimum temperature rise and minimum power consumption. In addition, Edelbrock inverted the supercharger and packaged it down low in the valley, allowing for an incredible, industry leading, 15 inches of runner length, maximizing low end torque. The supercharger housing itself is integrated into the intake manifold for a seamless design with minimal components, eliminating the possibility of vacuum leaks between gasket surfaces.
  • Page 3: Important Warnings

    Due to the complexity of the Edelbrock E-Force Supercharging system, it is recommend that this system only be installed by a qualified professional with access to a service lift, pneumatic tools, and a strong familiarity with automotive service procedures.
