CYLINDER HEADS - Ford - Small Block - Cleveland
PERFORMER RPM 351C

Edelbrock has taken the best qualities from the Boss 302, 351C, 351M and 400M to produce the best performing Ford Cleveland head available. Starting with a robust casting, manufactured from a lightweight A356 aluminum, and offering Edelbrock's out-of-the-box performance these new 351C heads include stock intake and exhaust port locations, stainless steel valves, heavy-duty valve springs for up to .600" lift, CNC profiled port entries and bowl blending for optimum air-flow, 5/8" thick deck for positive gasket sealing and retention and Heli-Coiled in the exhaust bolt and rocker stud bosses for maximum strength. The rocker set-up is based on the desirable Boss 302, adjustable 7/16" stud and guideplate configuration. With a "Yates inspired" fast burning combustion chamber and 190cc intake ports, this cylinder head is the perfect crossover for 2V and 4V applications, where low-end torque is vital and high-revving horsepower is a must. We didn't forget about the Clevor fans either, as the #61629 is also equipped with a deck plug kit for those wanting to retrofit these heads onto the 351W blocks.
