AFR 165cc SBF Outlaw Street/Strip Cylinder Head

No Heat Riser Or Air Pump Holes
The Maximum Street/Strip Performance

AFR 165 SBF Cylinder HeadsThese aluminum cylinder heads come ready for the maximum street/strip Small Block Ford performance possible. They are not emissions legal. The 165 comes with lightweight 8mm 1.900 intake and 1.600 exhaust valves and the 185 sports 8mm 2.020 intake and 1.600 exhaust valves. Both cylinder heads feature 58cc or 68cc combustion chamber with 68cc exhaust ports. Both the 165cc and 185cc have available as an option nitrous or blower exhaust ports featuring a 70cc ultra high flowing exhaust port. With AFR’s trademark 3/4” thick head deck, it’s no problem handling that additional cylinder pressure. Each head is also drilled for the larger 1/2” head bolt hole for maximum head gasket retention as a standard feature of this serious race piece in street disguise.

Note:

Hydraulic roller cams typically experience valve float at 6000-6200 rpm because of their fast ramp rates. AFR suggests you upgrade your springs to AFR part #8047, 1.290 O.D. with higher spring pressures to reduce chances of valve float associated with rpm’s 6200 or higher. (see footnotes here)
