Product Description:
Camaro/Firebird GM Performance Vortec Cylinder Head Assembly, Cast Iron, 64cc. This is for one head only.
Replaces old part # 12558060
An easy way to gain 20-40 horsepower on any 1955-and-newer Small Block Chevrolet V8 (except later LT1/LT1 Engines) is by installing a set of Vortec cylinder heads. These value priced cast iron cylinder heads use modified combustion chambers and high velocity port technology to provide improved performance. These cylinder heads are ideal for applications up to 350 horsepower, but they require Vortec-specific intake manifolds.
