If you're looking to boost the performance of your Ford 302 or 351W engine, the Ford Racing M-6049-Z304DA7 cylinder heads are a top-tier choice. Crafted from premium A356 T6 aluminum, these heads are designed with cutting-edge solid modeling technology to ensure optimal performance. Their high-flow ports are engineered for maximum airflow, making them perfect for street and performance applications.
These assembled heads come with CNC-machined combustion chambers that measure 63cc, and they feature 7mm valve seats made from durable steel alloy. While they are ready to bolt on, a competition valve job and bowl blending are recommended for those looking to extract every ounce of power. The manganese-bronze valve guides are semi-finished, allowing for a precise fit, and laser-cut guide plates ensure reliability. Plus, they accept both tapered seat and gasket-style 14mm spark plugs for added versatility.
The M-6049-Z304DA7 heads fit a wide range of Ford models, ensuring compatibility for many enthusiasts:
Ford F-150 owners have reported significant improvements in throttle response and overall power after installing these heads. One user mentioned, "I put these on my 1996 F-150 and the difference was night and day. The engine breathes so much better now!"
Mustang enthusiasts also rave about the performance boost. A 2018 Mustang GT owner said, "These heads transformed my ride. I can feel the extra horsepower, especially when I hit the gas!"
Whether you're upgrading for daily driving or preparing for track days, the Ford Racing M-6049-Z304DA7 cylinder heads are engineered to deliver the performance you crave. Don't settle for less when it comes to your Ford's power potential!
