Product Description: Ford 460 Cylinder Head
The Ford 460 Cylinder Head is a crucial component of the powerful Ford 460 cubic inch (7.5L) V8 gasoline engine. This engine was a popular choice for Ford trucks, vans, and some performance cars for many years. The cylinder head for the Ford 460 seals the top of the engine cylinders, forming the combustion chamber and housing the intake and exhaust valves. These cylinder heads were primarily made of cast iron from the factory, with aftermarket aluminum options also available for performance upgrades.
