STAINLESS STEEL TUBULAR EXHAUST SYSTEM #6661
Application:

7.4L V8 w/T.B.I., automatic & st d. transmission, w/o A.I.R.
INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE study these instructions carefully before inst alling your new T ubular Exhaust System (T.E.S.). If you have any
questions or problems, do not hesit ate to cont act our T echnical Hotline at : 1-800-416-8628.
TUBULAR EXHAUST SYSTEM: These components are designed as a system to improve the exhaust ef ficiency of the
GM 7.4 Liter T.B.I. (Throttle Body Injection) V8 engine. They are constructed of 409 HP st ainless steel to better withst a nd
the high heat present with the T.B.I. engine, especially when used for towing or other heavy duty applications. The st ain -
less steel used for these systems is much more durable than mild steel, although it does not appear dif ferent in appear -
ance. These systems come with a coat of black paint for good looks and protection during shipping and storage, and
they can be identified by the p art numbers on each of the major components. Note that a magnet will stick to this type of
st ainless steel; magnetic attraction is not a valid test for these systems. A performance gain can be expected by the
inst allation of the system. This system requires no welding for inst allation and ret ains all O.E.M. emissions equipment.
SUGGESTED TOOLS FOR INSTALLATION: This vehicle has some metric fasteners.
3/8 ratchet socket set with extensions and universal 13mm and 15mm swivel sockets
Combination set of open-end wrenches
Jackstands, screwdrivers, pliers, crescent wrench, etc.
Drill motor and 7/32" drill bit
Liquid penetrant, (GM #1052627) anti-seize compound (GM #5613695)
W ARNING: The use of Thermal Wrap materials will void the warranty on your T ubular Exhaust System. Those products
can cause excessive heat and moisture buildup resulting in corrosion of the system.
SPECIAL NOTICE: This Edelbrock p art has received an Executive Order number (E.O. #) from the California Air
Resources Board (C.A.R.B.) making it legal for street use on pollution-controlled motor vehicles in all 50 st ates. To assist
you with emissions equipment certification, we have included a silver fan shroud decal to help testing personnel verify
that this p art is a legal replacement p art on the vehicle for which it is cat aloged. The adhesive-backed decal should be
af fixed to your fan shroud next to the existing emission and engine specification decal. Do not cover your original equip -
ment specification decal with the Edelbrock fan shroud decal.
NOTE: High temperature spark plug wires and boot s are recommended to withstand heat from TES.
