Edelbrock Cylinder Head 60065 Single Hydraulic

Description

Product Overview

The Edelbrock 60065 is a complete single cylinder head engineered for hydraulic roller camshafts. Constructed with a robust satin‑finished aluminum alloy, it offers a 72cc combustion chamber volume that promotes efficient fuel burn and higher compression. The head includes 2.09‑inch intake and 1.66‑inch exhaust valves, providing generous airflow for both intake and exhaust cycles. With a deck thickness of 0.625 inches, the head ensures a solid seal and optimal compression ratio, while the 170cc intake and 125cc exhaust runner volumes are tuned for balanced performance across a wide RPM range.

Usage

Designed for street and track applications, this head excels in high‑performance V8 and V6 builds where hydraulic roller camshafts are preferred for their smooth operation and reduced valve train wear. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a reliable upgrade for muscle cars, hot rods, and custom builds, the 60065 delivers the airflow needed for increased horsepower without sacrificing durability.
