This new, parallel-flow design maximizes heat extraction in the area of the upper deck, intake and exhaust valve bridges in the heads and integrated exhaust manifold with a minimal amount of coolant. An integrated exhaust manifold rounds out the head’s features, saving weight over a conventional, separate head/manifold assembly.
