SPLAYED-VALVE ALUMINUM RACE HEAD 4
Departing from the in-line valve head, our splayed-valve castings
have a 0.240" minimum port wall thickness so your favorite head
porting expert can perform extensive modifications for greater
airflow. Intake valves are angled 16 to the deck surface and tilted
(splayed) 4 . Exhaust valve angles are 11 , with a 4 tilt. This is an
extremely aggressive, all-out competition race head designed to
make the absolute maximum power from your small-block Chevy
with no regard to streetability. Our NHRA Competition Eliminator
customers routinely make over 1000 horsepower (naturally aspirated) with this cylinder head!

4Splayed valves point the intake and exhaust valves at the center
of the cylinder bore. As the valves open, they move away from
the edges of the cylinder bore, allowing a larger valve to be
installed in the same bore size while dramatically increasing airflow.
