AFR 24° BBC Cylinder Head 345cc Partially CNC Ported, Race Ready, w/121cc CNC Chambers
AFR's 345cc BBC cylinder head is designed for radical street/strip, "Pro Street," and racing applications with engines up to 572 cubic inches, operating at or below 7000 RPM. Featuring partially CNC-machined intake runners and exhaust ports, these heads offer optimal airflow and efficiency. The combustion chambers are available with partial or full CNC machining, including a precision bowl blend, delivering exceptional performance. These heads flow up to 401 CFM at 0.700" of lift, making them a powerhouse for high-performance builds.
