INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GM Adapter Fitting #12552329
1. Attach GM EGR Supply Tube (#10220275) and GM Adapter Fitting (#12552329) to intake manifold (See Fig. 1). Do not tighten at this time!
2. Attach supplied EGR Supply Fitting to the GM Adapter Fitting (See Fig. 1). Do not tighten.
3. Using one of the Edelbrock bent tubes at a time, position the tubes agains the under side of the fitting and against the side of the header primary
tube. (Use the tube that allows the EGR-supply tube to be positioned in the vehicle so it has adequate clearance around other components). Bent
tubes can be trimmed as needed (See Fig. 1).
4. Once you have selected the tube that fits your application best, remove the Edelbrock
fitting from the EGR-supply tube and weld the fitting to the selected bent tube.
5. Re-install the fitting with the welded on tube and position the tube opening against the
header primary tube, mark the primary tube, remove the header and drill a 1/2” diameter
hole where you have marked.
6. For best fit, re-install the header into position, re-install the fitting onto the EGR-supplied
tube and tack weld.
7. Remove the header and complete the weld.
8. Re-install header with new gaskets and hardware. Tighten the GM adapter fitting into the
welded on tube and fitting, and tighten the fittings on both ends of EGR-supply tube.
