Cruise Control & Edel Performer Manifolds

Post by Dusty »

Any of youz ever tried putting your cruise control back on after installing an Edelbrock Performer manifold?

I will be installing my new manifold soon, but would like to have the best of both worlds.

Would like to know this as well. And no issues using stock air cleaner right?

I don't see why you couldn't. I used the OEM throttle cable brackets by spacing them up from the manifold. IIRC, I used some oversized nuts as a sleeve on the bolt.

your going to have to modify the bracket as the carburator will sit a bit more far forward than your stock manifold did. all i did was drill a hole and just use one bolt on one of the brackets. its pretty simple to figure out. as far as using your factory air cleaner i assume your gonna install a 4 bbl carb with it? the factory air cleaner will not provide enough air to the carburetor. i know ill probably get crap for this from all the "after market air cleaner nazi's" but its either that or adding a second snorkel to your factory air cleaner. there really is no performence issues with my aftermarket open air cleaner. my truck runs great and cool. good luck!
