- Thicker Deck Surfaces Than Other Brands
The Edelbrock #60985 Performer RPM E-Tec 200 cylinder head is designed as a high-performance replacement for 302, 327, 350, and 400 cubic-inch Small Block Chevrolet engines with Vortec-style manifolds. Featuring an LT1-style raised runner intake port design, these heads significantly increase airflow, optimizing engine efficiency and power output. The innovative combustion chamber design positions the spark plug closer to the center of the cylinder, promoting more complete combustion and boosting overall engine performance. This design results in more power, especially at higher RPM ranges up to 6000 rpm, making these heads suitable for street and race applications. The heads include an adjustable rocker stud and guide plate setup, allowing for proper positioning when using adjustable rockers or washers, ensuring compatibility with factory-style self-aligning rocker arms. Offering 20% more exhaust flow compared to cast iron Vortec heads, the Edelbrock #60985 heads deliver enhanced exhaust scavenging for improved torque and horsepower across the RPM range.
Constructed with thicker deck surfaces for increased durability, these cylinder heads are dual-drilled to accept both 1987-95 center bolt and 1986 and prior perimeter flange mount valve covers, as well as most stock exhaust manifolds. They are engineered to produce a compression ratio of up to 9.5:1 when paired with stock pistons in 350 cubic-inch engines, making them an excellent choice for performance upgrades without extensive engine modifications. Please note that these heads are not carb-approved and require acknowledgment of this status during installation. Designed for enthusiasts seeking maximum airflow and performance, the Edelbrock Performer RPM E-Tec 200 heads provide reliable, high-quality solutions for small block Chevy engines seeking improved power and efficiency.
