- Thicker Deck Surfaces Than Other Brands
The Edelbrock #60975 E-Tec cylinder head is designed as a direct replacement for 302, 327, 350, and 400 cubic inch Small-Block Chevrolet engines equipped with Vortec-style manifolds. Featuring an LT1-style raised runner intake port design, these heads significantly increase airflow for improved performance and power output. The innovative combustion chamber design positions the spark plug closer to the center of the cylinder, promoting more efficient combustion and enhancing engine power. Constructed with a thicker deck surface compared to other brands, these cylinder heads offer durability and reliability for high-performance applications. The Edelbrock E-Tec 170 heads are dual-drilled, allowing compatibility with 1987-95 center bolt or 1986 and earlier perimeter flange valve covers, as well as most stock exhaust manifolds, providing versatile installation options. They are street legal in all 50 states, making them suitable for street-driven vehicles seeking high performance. These heads deliver up to 20% more exhaust flow than cast iron Vortec heads, supporting performance up to 6000 rpm and allowing for a compression ratio of 9.5:1 when used with stock pistons in 350 cubic-inch engines. The adjustable rocker stud and guide plate setup enable proper stud height adjustment for factory-style self-aligning rocker arms, ensuring optimal valve train geometry. Whether upgrading for increased horsepower or improving airflow, the Edelbrock #60975 E-Tec heads are a reliable choice for enthusiast and professional builders alike, offering enhanced airflow, durability, and compatibility with a variety of engine configurations.
