PLEASE study these instructions carefully before beginning this installation. Most installations can be accomplished with common tools and
procedures. However, you should be familiar with and comfortable working on your vehicle. If you do not feel comfortable performing this installation,
it is recommended to have the installation completed by a qualified mechanic. If you have any questions, please call our Technical Hotline at:
1-800-416-8628, 7:00 am - 5:00 pm, Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Friday.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer. Improper installation
will void your warranty and may result in poor performance and engine or vehicle damage.
DESCRIPTION: Edelbrock Sure-Seat valve springs are made of high quality wire and are wound to close specifications for use with our Performer
RPM and Torker-Plus camshafts. These quality controlled springs are part of Edelbrock’s concept of a dyno-tested parts combination. In most cases
Sure Seat valve springs have inner dampeners, although some are true dual springs (#5757, #5762, etc.). Edelbrock springs are carefully inspected
for potential flaws and can be depended on for performance and durability.
CAUTION: For successful installation, use only the springs and parts recommended by Edelbrock for each camshaft application. These springs
are designed to be used for high-performance applications and must be used with high performance valve train components (screw-in studs, high
performance rockers, retainers, etc.). If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call our Technical Hotline at: 1-800-416-8628.
VALVE SPRING REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT: Due to the many years and models involved, it would be impossible to cover all applications. For
ease of installation and correct installation, we suggest you refer to a service manual for your year and model vehicle or Motors, Chilton, or Mitchell
service manuals for tools and procedures to follow.
CAUTION: The following instructions must be read and dimensions checked. These dimensions are critical and can cause parts wear and
possible breakage if not correct. Check your instruction sheet for correct spring part number and recommended installed spring height.
VALVE SPRING INSTALLED HEIGHT: Installed height is the dimension between
the valve spring retainer and cylinder head valve spring pad. See Figure 1
Dimension “A”. In some cases, spring shims may be needed for correct spring
setting.
NOTE: Remember Dimension “A” is valve spring length only. Include shims if
used. Never shim springs to a lesser dimension than recommended. Shimming
to a lesser dimension will cause coil bind or parts damage.
VALVE SEAL INSTALLATION: Improper installation of incorrect or special
aftermarket valve guide seals, without sufficient clearance between spring retainer
and valve guide seal, can cause camshaft and lifter wear and even parts breakage.
See Figure 1, Dimension “B”. Check Edelbrock camshaft specifications for
maximum valve lift.
NOTE: Dimension “B” should be a minimum of valve lift plus .050".
CAUTION: Failure to install springs and seals correctly may void warranty.
Edelbrock Sure Seat valve springs are supplied to cover engines using the same
valve spring for both intake and exhaust as one set.
NOTE: Check your vehicle and application sheet for correct spring selection.
