Toyota Cylinder Head FAQs
What benefits does a hand-ported cylinder head provide?
Hand-porting optimizes airflow through the exhaust runners and combustion chambers, resulting in improved performance, increased horsepower, and better throttle response.
Do you offer cylinder heads with titanium retainers?
Yes, many of our performance cylinder heads come equipped with titanium retainers, which reduce weight and improve valve response, allowing for higher RPM capabilities and better performance.
What are exhaust runners, and what role do they play in cylinder head performance?
Exhaust runners are passages within the cylinder head that direct exhaust gases out of the engine. Properly designed exhaust runners can significantly enhance the engine's overall efficiency and power by improving gas flow.
Are there cylinder head options for turbocharged setups?
Yes, our Pro Turbo/Supercharged Cylinder Head for the 22R/RE/RTE (1985-1995) is specifically designed to handle increased boost while maintaining reliability and performance.
Can I use these cylinder heads on a stock engine?
Yes, our performance cylinder heads can be used on stock engines, although we recommend complementing them with other performance upgrades (like exhaust systems and tuning) to fully realize their potential.
What types of valves are used in these Toyota cylinder heads?
Our performance cylinder heads often feature larger exhaust valves for enhanced flow. The specific configurations may vary between models, so please check individual product specifications for details.
Are these cylinder heads suitable for high-performance and racing applications?
Absolutely. Our Pro Cylinder Heads and Stage models are designed with racing performance in mind, ensuring durability and maximum power delivery under high-stress conditions.
What is the difference between CNC competition ported and hand ported cylinder heads?
CNC comp ported heads are machined using computer-controlled technology for precise and uniform modifications, maximizing airflow for consistent performance. In contrast, hand ported cylinder heads allow experienced technicians to customize and fine-tune each head based on the specific characteristics of the engine, providing a tailored solution that often results in smoother airflow and better overall engine response.
What should I consider when choosing a cylinder head for my Toyota engine?
Consider the intended use of your engine (street vs. race), your performance goals, and the compatibility with other components in your setup. LCE Performance staff is available to assist you in selecting the best option for your needs.
