AFR 185cc SBF Renegade Street/Strip Cylinder Head
No heat riser or air pump holes for maximum street/strip performance
These heads come ready for the maximum street/strip Small Block Ford performance possible. AFRs 185cc sport lightweight 8mm 2.020 intake and 1.600 exhaust valves with options for either 58cc or 72cc combustion chambers and 70cc exhaust ports. With AFRs 3/4” thick head deck, its no problem handling that additional cylinder pressure. Each head is also drilled for the larger 1/2” head bolt 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 #8605, 1.290 O.D. with higher spring pressures
to reduce chances of valve float associated with rpm´s 6200 or
higher. (see footnotes here)
Note:Competition package exhaust port is raised .125 over stock.
