INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

1.Support and secure the intake manifold properly in a drill press or on a work bench to allow a straight drill path to the injector bosses (See Fig. 2 for reference).

2.Using a 7/16” drill bit, drill through the blind holes in the injector bosses.

Warning: Use caution as the drill may tend to kick back as it breaks through to the intake manifold runners.

Warning: Be careful not to damage the o-ring sealing surface when drilling the injector bosses.

4.Insert the appropriate injectors for your application into the intake manifold.

5.Press the fuel rail onto the injectors. Using a fuel system safe lubricant on the o-rings will help make this easier.

6.Bolt the fuel rail to the Performer-X intake manifold using the supplied 1/4-20x1-1/4” bolts and the supplied washers.

7.Apply a fuel system safe thread sealant to the threads of the 3/8”NPTx-6AN adapters and install them into the ends of the fuel rail.

Note: You may also use any adapter fitting with 3/8”NPT threads, if it is more suitable to your fuel system. Also, be sure to allow the sealant to cure completely before allowing fuel through the fuel rail. Fittings may also be installed before mounting fuel rail onto the intake manifold. Make sure to secure the fuel rail in a soft jaw bench vise.
