Installation Instructions
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Edelbrock Supercharger System for the Chevy Camaro LT1. The Edelbrock E-Force
Supercharger System for the Chevy Camaro utilizes the same Eaton Gen VI TVS Supercharger rotors but housed inside a
redesigned, low profile, supercharger manifold. The manifold is Edelbrock’s lowest profile supercharger manifold to date.
Paired with short, bolt-on runners, this new package will fit under the factory hood with no modifications to the stock body
or hood. The supercharger retains the inverted design which expels air upward. Air pressure then builds in the plenum,
before being drawn down through the twin intercooler cores.
This system features a cast water crossover, a design that simplifies the intercooler hose routing. The water crossover is
secured to the manifold, allowing the cooled 50/50 coolant mixture from the LTR (Low Temp Radiator) to cool down the
twin intercoolers housed inside the manifold.
The supercharger is 50-State emissions legal (pending), and includes a 3-year 36,000 mile warranty so that there are no
worries when installing it on a brand new car.
Installation time: Approximately 11 hours.

Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT WARNINGS
Before beginning the installation, use the enclosed checklist to verify that all
components are present in the box. Then inspect each component for damage
that may have occurred in transit. If any parts are missing or damaged, contact
Edelbrock Technical Support (800-416-8628), not your parts distributor.
WARNING: Installation of this supercharger will result in a significant change to the
performance characteristics of your vehicle. It is highly recommended that you take some
time to familiarize yourself with the added power and how it’s delivered. This must be done
in a controlled environment. Take extra care on wet and slippery roads as the rear tires will
be more likely to lose traction with the added power. It is never recommended to turn off
your vehicles traction control system.
Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer. Improper installation will void all
manufacture’s standard warranties and may result in poor performance and engine or vehicle
damage.
Inspect all components for damage that may have occurred in transit before beginning
installation. If any parts are missing or damaged, contact Edelbrock Technical Support, not your
parts distributor.
Due to the complexity of the Edelbrock E-Force Supercharging system, it is recommended that this system only
be installed by a qualified professional with access to a service lift, pneumatic tools, and a strong familiarity
with automotive service procedures. To qualify for the drivetrain warranty, it is necessary to have this system
installed by a Certified ASE Technician at a licensed business, GM Dealership, or an Authorized Edelbrock
Installer. Failure to do so will void and/or disqualify any and all optional supplemental warranties offered with
this system. Please contact the Edelbrock Technical Support department if you have any questions regarding
this system and/or how your installer of choice will affect any warranty coverage for which your vehicle may
qualify.
Any previously installed aftermarket tuning equipment must be removed and the vehicle returned
to an as-stock condition before installing the supercharger.
Any equipment that directly modifies the fuel mixture or ignition timing of the engine can cause severe engine
damage if used in conjunction with the Edelbrock E-Force Supercharger System. This includes, but is not limited
to: OBDII programmers, MAF sensors, adapters and any other device that modifies signals to and/or from the
ECU. Aftermarket bolt-on equipment such as underdrive pulleys or air intake kits will also conflict with the
operation of the supercharger and must be removed prior to installation. Use of any of these products with the
E-Force Supercharger could result in severe engine damage.

How to Prime the Edelbrock E-Force Intercooler Systems.
The electric water pump used on this Edelbrock E-Force Supercharger System has a built-in
micro-processor that will vary pump cycle speed when air bubbles are present in the system. If
a significant amount of air is trapped in the system, the pump may cycle at a slower speed and
pulsations are likely to occur resulting in poor cooling performance.
For the best result, it is highly recommended to use a Radiator Cooling System Vacuum Purge and Refill Kit to properly
evacuate the air from the intercooler system before filling with a 50/50 mixture of coolant and distilled water. If one is not
available, the following procedure will be adequate.
1. Using the Lisle 24680 Spill-Free Funnel, or equivalent, secure the appropriate filler neck adapter to the surge tank.
2. Attach the funnel and fill with a 50/50 mixture of coolant and distilled water until the funnel is half full.
3. Turn the ignition to the ON position and listen for the pump’s electric motor to cycle. Air bubbles will begin to purge from
the system as the coolant level drops. Add coolant to the funnel as necessary. NOTE: Do NOT let the coolant level in
the funnel run empty as this may introduce air into the system.
4. To build more pressure in the intercooler system, try squeezing the intercooler hoses while the pump is cycling. Building
pressure in the system will help purge the trapped air from the intercooler system.
5. Cycle the ignition OFF and wait a few seconds for the pump to come to a stop.
6. Cycle the ignition ON again and repeat until the sound of the electric pump is continuous without any pulsation. NOTE:
During water pump start-up, it is normal for a slight pulsation to occur. Once the pump has reached its maximum cycle
speed, no pulsations should be present.
7. Periodically inspect the water pump flow after a few drive cycles and re-fill the intercooler system as necessary.
8. Several drive cycles may be required to completely purge the air from the intercooler system. During a drive cycle, the
intercooler system will build up pressure as the supercharger temperature increases. Any residual air trapped in the
system will gradually bleed out of the surge tank as the system reaches a pressure above 5psi.
WARNING: Always avoid removing the surge tank cap when the engine is hot. The hot coolant is under
pressure and may spray out causing burns.
