Aluminum Complete Cylinder Heads by Speedmaster®. 2 Pieces. Combustion Chamber Volume 64 cc. Intake Runner Volume: 227 cc. Competition Valve Job: No. Spark Plug Style: Standard. Cylinder Head Material: Aluminum. One of the best upgrades to your Small Block Ford engine is the replacement of your cast iron head to a better performing and lighter aluminum head. How great is it that you can now do it at a price that's affordable. Speedmaster line of Ford performance heads have proven themselves time and time again both on the track and on the dyno, not to mention countless features in performance magazine articles. They offer Small block ford cylinder heads for a wide range of displacement applications. With bigger displacement engines becoming more common, the need for more airflow is necessary.

Intake / Exhaust Gaskets

Although Speedmaster Small Block Ford cylinder heads fit on both 289 / 302 / 5.0L and 351W blocks, they use the same manifold to Head Gaskets, but require specific valley Gaskets that are purchased separately from some aftermarket suppliers. Speedmaster PCE349.1006 comes with both lengths of valley Gaskets as well as the manifold to Head Gaskets. Fel-pro has specific part numbers for each layout. Fel-Pro pn# 1262 is the manifold to head gasket that fits both engines. If you require a thicker gasket, or have Speedmaster PCE281.16** CNC ported heads, use Felpro pn# 1262R.

For the Exhaust Gaskets, use Speedmaster PCE355.1002 which is a re-useable copper gasket set, or Felpro pn# 1487 which is a paper gasket set.
