CYLINDER HEADS - Chevrolet - LS1
RPM Xtreme LS Series Head
Our new RPM Xtreme cylinder heads give you the best combination of as-cast port design and custom CNC technology. Through dedicated engineering and rigorous testing, Edelbrock engineers have designed a new line of cylinder heads called RPM Xtreme. These heads blend the affordability of as-cast ports with custom CNC porting in the critical areas (combustion chambers, intake entry, exhaust exit and intake/exhaust bowls) for improved air flow and overall performance. This proven combination provides you with a powerful cylinder head at a lower cost than a typical fully CNC’d head.
