Tattersfield Street Race Flathead Heads are perfect for the average Flathead builder. The combustion chamber on these heads was designed by Tattersfield Design and is known as the Ed Winfield Crows-Foot. This head features a valve pocket that is .500 inch with a transfer area of .430 inches. Unshrouding over the intake valves provide better performance. The combustion Ratio for these heads is 8-9.5 to 1. Water manifolds are available in both front and center design but sold separately. Looking for the best street quality head performance these heads are perfect for the average street builder. One of the images in the gallery shows a side cut of the head. Illustrating how these heads have an enlarged coolant chamber that can hold a gallon of coolant and thus offer better cooling performance. Exclusive to the Tatterfield-Baron design these heads offer a deck thickness that is over one inch thick. The combustion chambers are all C&C machined to provide the exact specifications that made this brand what it is. Best of all unlike other heads with one outlet, Tatterfield-Baron heads have three outlets positioned right above the exhaust valves. Offering consistent cooling in the hottest areas of the head under the highest of performance applications.
