Installation Notes
  • The Edelbrock #8553 is made specifically for 9.5 deck height small block Ford V8
  • Apply oil or suitable thread lubricant to head bolt threads and the underside of bolt heads and washers. Using the torque sequence (See Figure 1), torque all 7/16? bolts to 65-70 ft./lbs and all 1/2? bolts to 100-110 ft./lbs in four steps (30, 40, 50, 60-75; or 30, 60, 90, 100-110). Installation is the same as for original equipment cylinder heads. Consult service manual for specific procedures, if necessary. BOSS 302 CLONE ENGINES - Use Edelbrock Head Bolt Bushings with Integral Washers #9680 in place of washers supplied with your head bolt kit. Torque 7/16? bolts to 65-70 ft./lbs. in four steps (30, 40, 50, 65-70) following the factory tightening sequence. ALL ENGINES - A re-torque is recommended after initial start-up and cool-down (allow 2-3 hours for adequate cooling).
