SBC SHP Cylinder Head 200cc/64cc SP - Bare

The SBC SHP Cylinder Head 200cc/64cc SP - Bare from DART is a precision-engineered aluminum casting designed for small block Chevy engine builds requiring high-flow intake and chamber architecture. Built for performance rebuilds, restorations, and competition applications, this bare cylinder head provides the foundation for custom port work and valve train configurations. Whether you're upgrading a street engine or preparing a race package, the SHP head's 200 cubic centimeter intake runner volume and 64 cubic centimeter chamber deliver the flow characteristics necessary for horsepower and efficiency gains.

This bare aluminum casting features 2.020-inch intake and 1.600-inch exhaust valve bosses with a straight spark plug orientation, allowing flexible ignition timing solutions. The 200cc intake port volume supports mid-range to high-RPM cylinder charging, while the efficiently sized 64cc combustion chamber promotes fuel atomization and burn rate optimization. Aluminum construction provides weight savings compared to iron alternatives while maintaining structural integrity under sustained performance conditions. The bare configuration allows engine builders to specify custom valve seats, guides, and port matching work tailored to specific displacement and fuel system requirements.

Professional engine builders, hot rod shops, and serious enthusiasts rely on DART SHP heads for small block Chevy applications ranging from 350 cubic inch strokers to fuel-injected performance engines. The bare head configuration suits builders committed to complete custom assembly and port optimization, while the straight plug design accommodates traditional and modern ignition platforms. At 25.8 lbs, this head integrates efficiently into lightweight engine packages without requiring extensive block modifications. Proper gasket selection, torque sequencing, and valve timing verification ensure reliable service in both street and track environments.
