Overview:

The AFR 224cc Black Hawk Gen 3 Hemi Cylinder Heads are precision-engineered performance components designed to enhance airflow and combustion efficiency for a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram Hemi engines. Crafted from durable cast aluminum, these bare cylinder heads are ideal for enthusiasts and builders seeking to maximize power output and reliability on 5.7L, 6.1L SRT8, 6.2L Hellcat, and 6.4L 392 Hemi platforms.

With CNC-machined combustion chambers and intake/exhaust runners, these heads deliver consistent, high-quality finishes that improve airflow dynamics and combustion stability. The Black Hawk Gen 3 heads are perfect for street performance, racing applications, and custom engine builds requiring robust, high-flow cylinder heads that maintain factory compatibility.

Key Features:

These cylinder heads incorporate advanced design and manufacturing techniques to optimize engine performance:

• 224cc intake runner volume with square port shape for improved airflow
• 69cc CNC-machined combustion chambers designed for efficient Hemi combustion
• 75cc exhaust runner volume with D-port shape for effective exhaust scavenging
• Intake valve diameter of 2.165 inches and exhaust valve diameter of 1.650 inches for enhanced breathing
• CNC-machined intake and exhaust runners for precision and consistency
• Valve guides made from durable bronze material for long-lasting valve alignment
• Valve seats machined from ductile iron for improved wear resistance
• Standard intake and exhaust port locations to fit most factory manifolds
• Valve stem seals included to protect valve train components
• Perimeter bolt valve cover mounting style with accessory bolt holes drilled for ease of installation

Construction & Design:

Constructed from high-quality cast aluminum, the AFR Black Hawk Gen 3 heads offer a lightweight yet durable solution that withstands the rigors of high-performance use. The heads feature fully CNC-machined combustion chambers and runners, ensuring precise port shapes and surface finishes that promote optimal airflow and combustion efficiency. Bronze valve guides and ductile iron valve seats contribute to longevity and reliable valve sealing under demanding conditions.

The heads maintain a standard intake and exhaust port location with a 10-degree valve lock style and valve angles of 18 degrees intake and 16.5 degrees exhaust, preserving compatibility with most factory components while delivering improved flow characteristics. The design supports a maximum valve lift of 0.600 inches, accommodating aggressive camshaft profiles.

Installation & Fitment:

These cylinder heads are designed to fit a broad range of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram Hemi engines, including 5.7L, 6.1L SRT8, 6.2L Hellcat, and 6.4L 392 models. Installation requires standard procedures for Hemi cylinder heads and may necessitate valve train component upgrades depending on your build. The heads do not include valves, springs, retainers, or rocker arms, allowing builders to customize their valve train setup to suit specific performance goals.

Ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s engine and intended use by consulting fitment guides and verifying part numbers before installation.
