Now owners of 400, 430 and 455
c.i.d. Buick V8s can step up to the proven performance of Edelbrock’s new
Performer RPM Buick aluminum cylinder heads. In dyno tests, these high quality
heads made 480 horsepower and 540 ft/lbs. of torque from a .030-over bore 455
engine with an Edelbrock intake manifold, Crane hydraulic lifter cam and 1-3/4"
headers.
They are available bare #60039 or fully assembled and ready to bolt on with
high quality stainless steel 2.125" intake and 1.75" exhaust valves #60049. The
215cc intake ports are CNC gasket matched for outstanding flow characteristics
and 68cc combustion chambers produce 9.2:1 compression ratio with stock pistons.
They are cast from durable A356-T6 aluminum and CNC machined in Edelbrock’s
modern manufacturing facility in Torrance, California. Like all Edelbrock heads,
the rocker stud and exhaust bolt holes are Heli-Coiled™ for strength.
Performer RPM Buick cylinder heads are designed to accept widely available
small-block Chevy adjustable rockers for an easy valvetrain upgrade, and high
flow 130cc exhaust ports in the stock location accept original exhaust manifolds
or headers for bolt-on performance. Visit www.edelbrock.com to see their
complete line of cylinder heads, intake manifolds, cabs and more.
