  • Rectangle Port

  • Valve Size: 2.19"/1.88"

  • Assembled, Sold Individually

    Performer RPM rectangular-port heads have specially designed intake and exhaust ports for increased flow and velocity over standard big-block heads. These heads feature a highly-efficient 118cc open-style combustion chamber for maximum performance. Engineered with high-velocity 315cc long and 300cc short intake runners, they are designed for street/high-performance big-block Chevys operating from 2500-7000 rpm. The stainless steel, hardened tip 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 Note: The Spark plug is closer to center of bore, for use with flat top or low dome pistons and will interfere with high-dome pistons for open chamber heads. If a high compression domed piston is to be used, purchase a piston designed for use with this Edelbrock cylinder head.

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