    Edelbrock 60449 - Edelbrock BB-Chevy Performer RPM Aluminum Cylinder Heads Details

    BB-Chevy Performer RPM 454-O Aluminum Cylinder Heads

    Designed for big-block Chevy 396-502 c.i.d. engines, these oval port heads will support over 540 horsepower with 9.5:1 compression when used as part of the Performer RPM Power Package. A totally unique intake port design yields flow numbers traditionally associated with high performance rectangular port heads, but with the smaller runner size and velocity of an oval port for excellent seat-of-the-pants performance and crisp throttle response. The semi-open chamber design maximizes combustion efficiency with streetable compression ratios. The stainless steel 2.19'' intake and 1.88'' exhaust valves have smaller-than-stock 11/32'' valve stems to promote excellent flow and lighter valve weight. The deck surface and water jackets were specially designed to work with all big-block Chevrolet engine blocks. Heads include top-quality ARP rocker studs, bronze guides and hardened, ductile iron valve seats.

    Tech Tip: To gain more spark plug clearance, Edelbrock recommends using Champion RC Series plugs such as the RC12YC (P/N 192-49776). They are 0.230'' shorter than a conventional spark plug and have a 5/8'' hex for easier access.

    Edelbrock Performer RPM 454 Cylinder Heads
    These oval port heads will support over 540 hp with 9.5:1 compression when used as part of the Edelbrock Total Power Package. The unique oval intake port shape produces flow similar to rectangular ports, but the smaller port size provides excellent seat-of-the-pants performance and crisp throttle response. The semi-open chamber design maximizes efficiency with streetable compression ratios and the smaller-than-stock 11/32'' valve stems promote excellent flow and lighter valve weight. Cylinder heads equiped with exhaust crossover.

    Edelbrock Performer RPM 454-R Cylinder Heads
    The Performer RPM 454-R is designed for street/high-performance big-blocks operating from 2500-7000 RPM. The specially designed ports offer increased flow and velocity over standard big-block heads. These heads feature highly-efficient 118cc open-style combustion chamber and high-velocity 315cc long/300cc short intake ports. Smaller-than-stock 11/32'' valve stems promote excellent flow and lighter valve weight.

    Marine Performer RPM 454-R Cylinder Heads
    The Marine Performer RPM 454-R heads feature heavy-duty, 1.89'' Inconel exhaust valves that provide added durability for marine applications. They are hard anodized to protect the aluminum in the harsh marine environment. These heads use smaller-than-stock 11/32'' valve stems to promote excellent flow and lighter valve weight. Match them with an Edelbrock Performer RPM manifold, Performer Series 750 cfm marine carb and Performer RPM cam for proven high-performance!
