Description
Build your cathedral-port LS engine with a bare aluminum cylinder head engineered for custom performance applications. Featuring 210cc cathedral-style intake runners, 64cc heart-shaped combustion chambers, cathedral intake ports, and D-port exhaust ports, this cylinder head is designed to support improved airflow and performance potential in LS1, LS6, and other compatible cathedral-port LS engine combinations.
The 210cc runner design provides an ideal balance of airflow and air velocity, helping support strong throttle response, torque production, and horsepower gains across a broad RPM range. Cathedral intake ports and D-port exhaust ports make this cylinder head an excellent choice for naturally aspirated street performance builds, muscle cars, performance trucks, street/strip vehicles, and LS swap projects.
As a bare casting, this cylinder head gives engine builders complete flexibility when selecting valves, springs, retainers, seals, and valvetrain components. This allows the cylinder head to be tailored to specific camshaft profiles, RPM ranges, and horsepower goals, making it ideal for custom engine builds and machine shop assembly.
Constructed from lightweight aluminum, this cylinder head helps reduce weight while dissipating heat more efficiently than comparable cast iron designs. Whether you're building a performance LS1, LS6, 5.3L truck engine, or a custom LS swap project, this bare aluminum cylinder head provides a strong foundation for a high-performance cathedral-port LS build.
Cylinder Head Technology
Designed with 210cc cathedral-style intake runners, 64cc heart-shaped combustion chambers, cathedral intake ports, and D-port exhaust ports, this aluminum cylinder head is engineered to support increased airflow and combustion efficiency in cathedral-port LS engine applications. The bare casting configuration allows builders to select the exact valvetrain components required for their specific performance goals.
Performance Benefits
The 210cc runner design helps maintain strong intake velocity while supporting increased airflow, making this cylinder head suitable for a wide range of naturally aspirated performance combinations. Aluminum construction helps reduce weight and dissipate heat efficiently, supporting improved throttle response, torque production, and horsepower potential.

Emissions Notice
This Top Street Performance (TSP) product is designed for racing and off-road competition use only. It is not legal for use on public roads or emissions-controlled vehicles and does not comply with federal, state, or local emissions regulations. The buyer assumes all responsibility for legal use and installation.
What is a Emissions-Controlled Vehicle?
"An emissions-controlled vehicle is any vehicle equipped with a factory-installed emissions control system designed to reduce air pollution. These systems include catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valves, and diesel particulate filters (DPF). Most vehicles manufactured after 1975 are considered emissions-controlled and must comply with federal and state emissions laws when used on public roads."
