Can't remember?
« on: August 06, 2017, 08:44:18 AM »
I have Barry's stroker kit (I'm pretty sure) it's scat 4125 Fe with 10:6 compression. I don't remember which # Edelbrock heads are typically used in this 482?
IDENTIFICATION: These heads are available in pairs, either bare or assembled, for the following applications:
Ø Performer RPM Ford head #6005 (bare) or #6006 (complete)
The #6005/6006 head is a Performer RPM aluminum cylinder head for 1960-1976 390 and 428 c.i.d. Ford FE
engines with a 4.05" or 4.13" bore. It is manufactured with the 428 CJ valve sizes (2.09" intake and 1.66"
exhaust). This head also uses the 16-bolt 428 Cobra Jet exhaust flange bolt pattern. The 390GT exhaust
manifolds will not fit these cylinder heads. The combustion chamber is as-cast with a volume of 72cc.
Ø Performer RPM Ford head #6008 (bare) or #6007 (complete)
The #6007/6008 cylinder head is a Performer RPM aluminum cylinder head for 1963-68 427 Ford FE Low and
Medium Riser engines with a 4.23" bore. These heads have a machined 76cc combustion chamber similar to a
Ford Medium Riser chamber and the 8-bolt vertical exhaust flange bolt pattern. The #6007 complete head also
uses the 2.09" intake and 1.66" exhaust valve sizes for 427 Low Riser applications. For 427 Medium Riser
applications, the #6008 bare head can be used, but must be prepared for the 2.19" intake and 1.73" exhaust
valves used in 427 Medium Riser engines. Thanks!

His question was: "Which part number Edelbrock Heads would be best for a 482."

I didn't answer because I'd have said "Survival or BBM"

Actually my question is I'm not sure what number I have? #6006, 6007, or 6008? The manifold is the medium riser and my block is a 1964 427 top oiler. Hope this helps. And Thanks!

the 600_ #'s are normally clearly marked on the heads.
