SPECIAL NOTICE: This Edelbrock part has received an Executive Order (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 states. To assist you with emissions
equipment certification, we have included a silver fan shroud decal to help testing personnel verify that this part is a legal
replacement part on the vehicle for which it is cataloged. The adhesive-backed decal should be affixed to your fan shroud
next to the existing emission and engine specification decal. Do not cover your original equipment specification decal with
the Edelbrock fan shroud decal.
