- Edelbrock Ford 351C/351M/400M Performer RPM Cylinder Heads
Until now, there weren't many options available when it came to aftermarket head selection for the Clevelands. Now, that's all changed with the Performer RPM head for 351C.
Designed to work with the 351C, 351M, and 400M, they feature very streetable 190cc intake runners with 2.05" intake and 1.60" exhaust valves that provide more than enough volume for outstanding power to 6500+ rpm. Not only do they offer superior flow over a stock Cleveland or 351/400M head, but they also offer the flexibility to work on the standard 302 or 351 Windsor block to build your own version of a Boss 302, or the infamous "Clevor" engine! The intake and exhaust ports are in the stock location to further add to the streetability of these heads, and can be made to breathe even better with minor port work. Made In The USA!

How To Install Edelbrock Ford 351C/351M/400M Performer RPM Cylinder Heads
Depending on the year, make, and model of both the vehicle and engine, the steps to install Edelbrock Ford 351C, 351M, and Ford 400M heads will vary. It is important to follow the instructions included with the heads for proper assembly. In most applications, the first step is removing all engine components that are connected to the original cylinder heads or in the way of replacement. This includes the drive belts, pulleys, and accessories. Next, the spark plugs and spark plug wires are removed as well as the intake manifold, distributor, carburetor or fuel injection components, EGR pipe, and PCV hose connections to the cylinder heads. The cylinder head bolts are then removed and carefully marked so that they go in the same place during reassembly. The cylinder heads can then be removed along with the head gaskets. Preparation for assembly begins with cleaning all parts and gasket surfaces. Installation of cylinder heads is in the reverse of removal, with the correct torque specifications and sequence used as well as all new component gaskets for proper sealing.
