FAQs

Are AMC's cylinder heads better than the OEM Toyota ones?
Yes, AMC heads are engineered with stronger alloys and improved cooling passages, solving many of the issues that plagued the factory castings.

Do I need new head bolts or studs?
Yes, head bolts are torque-to-yield and should never be reused. We recommend pairing this head with a new Toyota OEM or ARP stud kit.
