- Port Volumes: 170cc/70cc
- Combustion Chamber Size: 64cc
- Bare Head, Sold Individually
Feature 170cc Vortec-shaped intake and 65cc exhaust ports. Flow 20% more on the exhaust side than cast iron Vortec heads and produce power up to 6000 RPM. 64cc combustion chamber gives about 9.5:1 compression ratio with stock pistons in a 350.
Technical Notes: - Recommended spark plugs are Champion RC12YC or equivalent 14mm x 3/4" reach with flat gasket seat.
- Requires hardened pushrods. Recommend Edelbrock 350-9629 for flat tappet cams only

- Can not be used on engines with less than a 4" bore except with cams having less than .450" lift.
- Bare heads will have valve guides and seats installed, but will require final sizing and a valve job to match the valves you will be using.

Since founder Vic Edelbrock Sr. began building performance intake manifolds in 1938, Edelbrock has grown into one of the most trusted names in American high-performance parts, from carburetors and intake manifolds to cylinder heads, crate engines, and EFI systems. JEGS has spent decades supplying Edelbrock components to racers, engine builders, and street enthusiasts, backing this extensive lineup with in-house technical support, fast shipping, and a Price Match Guarantee so you can choose proven Edelbrock parts with confidence.
Engineered to greatly increase performance and efficiency, E-TEC heads fit Small Block Chevy 302-400ci engines with ''Vortec'' style intake manifolds. These powerful heads incorporate Edelbrock's high-quench combustion chamber which promotes a more uniform atomization of the air/fuel mixture for more power. Spark plugs have been positioned closer to the center of the cylinder for more efficient combustion. Swirl-polished stainless steel valves provide maximum flow. They accept center bolt or standard valve covers, work with most stock exhaust manifolds and have intake and exhaust ports that are .200'' taller than typical Small Block Chevy heads. Match these heads with an Edelbrock Vortec intake manifold for the best results.
