Edelbrock RPM Air-Gap Vortec Manifold - 7516

Edelbrock part 7516 RPM Air-Gap intake manifold is based on the powerful Performer RPM Vortec 7116. This single four-barrel intake is designed for 262-400 c.i.d. Chevy V8s with 1996 and later Vortec (L31) cast iron or Edelbrock E-Tec aluminum heads. The air-gap design features an open air space that separates the runners from the hot engine oil resulting in a cooler, denser charge for more power. An external water bypass boss is machined into the front of the water crossover for use on 1996 and later Vortec production engines. Includes rear water outlets, nitrous bosses, 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. Accepts 1976 and later alternator and air-conditioning brackets for street installations. For square-bore carbs. No provision for exhaust-heated chokes and no exhaust crossover. Will not fit under stock Corvette hood.

Whether its for a full rebuild or some standard maintenance, the proper engine components are needed to make sure your vehicle is running smooth.

Intake manifolds direct the airflow from the air intake into your vehicle's cylinder head. An aftermarket intake manifold can increase the airflow and horsepower of your engine.
