CYLINDER HEADS - Ford - Flatheads

Ford Flathead
  • The original Edelbrock script logo design for Fords and Mercurys
  • Rugged, ribbed internally and externally, with a large water capacity and excellent breathing characteristics
  • Cast at the Edelbrock Foundry in the USA of T-6 tempered A356 aluminum
  • 65cc heads support 8.0:1 compression ratio on blocks with a 3/16" base relief (stock bore and stroke), compression ratio increase is approximately 3/10 of a percent with each 1/8" stroke
  • High Lift/Large Chamber versions feature a new "raised roof" combustion chamber design that is CNC machined for high lift cams and is perfect for reducing compression in supercharger applications or on low octane fuel
  • High Lift heads have increased valve clearance and increased flow capacity
