Edelbrock 7516 Performer RPM Air-Gap Intake Manifold

Edelbrock 7516 Performer RPM Air-Gap Intake Manifold Review



Edelbrock 7516 Performer RPM Air-Gap Intake Manifold Feature

  • Patented runner design that delivers outstanding performance
  • For square-bore carburetors
  • Accepts 1976 and later alternator and air-conditioning brackets for street installations
  • No provision for exhaust-heated chokes and no exhaust crossover
  • Will not fit under stock Corvette hood
The Edelbrock Vortec RPM Air-Gap Intake Manifold is based on the powerful Performer RPM Vortec EDL-7116. This single four-barrel intake is designed for 1996 and later Vortec (L31) cast iron or the new Edelbrock E-Tec aluminum heads. The RPM air-gap manifold delivers outstanding performance using the same air-gap technology found in our race-winning Victor manifolds. This unique design separates the hot engine valley from the air/fuel mixture for a cooler, denser charge and more power throughout the RPM range. An external water bypass boss is machined into the front of the water crossover for use on 1996 and later Vortec production engines. It includes rear water outlets, nitrous bosses and a temp sensor boss that clears all waternecks, two distributor clamp locations and a heater outlet boss that's angled for proper fit over the valve cover. It accepts 1976 and later alternator and air-conditioning brackets for street installations and is for square-bore carburetors.

Did You Know?
Your vehicle's differential is a kind of unsung hero within the powertrain system. The differential has two primary responsibilities: directing engine power to the drive wheels and allowing the wheels to rotate at different speeds when cornering. If the wheels couldn't rotate at different speeds, your vehicle's tires would display a wheel hop effect, thereby making cornering a rough experience for both you and your tires.So, don't be indifferent toward your differential. It plays a vital role in moving your vehicle and ensuring a smooth ride.

Radiator Contamination:
When an engine or transmission fails and needs to be replaced, often, the vehicle's radiator must be replaced as well. This is due to the engine or transmission contaminating the radiator with excessive gear shavings or other foreign objects at failure.

What It Does
The powertrain includes the engine, transmission (transaxle on front-wheel-drive vehicles) and drive axles that work in tandem to move the vehicle.

Service & Maintenance
While many of your vehicle's powertrain components such as the driveshaft and axle shafts don't require much routine maintenance, there are a few parts that need periodic attention.
  • Check the engine oil level at every fuel fill and add oil if necessary
  • About once a month, make sure all tires are inflated properly and check for any unusual wear or damage
  • Have an underbody flushing performed approximately once a year
  • The engine's exterior should be cleaned periodically. Buildups of oil and dirt can cause the engine to run hot or hide leaks
  • Have your vehicle inspected if the Service Engine Soon light illuminates
For most GM cars, light-duty trucks and SUVs on the road today.
