Fits 1985–1995 Toyota 2.4L SOHC 22R / 22RE / 22REC (Short Deck) (Non-Turbo)
 
The Red Line Street Performer Series Cylinder Head is built for enthusiasts who demand more than just a replacement cylinder head. Designed for high-performance street trucks, weekend cruisers, off-road builds, and spirited daily drivers, this cylinder head combines premium components with precision machine work to deliver exceptional airflow, throttle response, and long-term reliability.
Unlike remanufactured cylinder heads, every Street Performer Series head begins as a brand-new casting manufactured by Toyota's original OEM cylinder head supplier using the original Toyota casting molds. This provides superior casting integrity, precise OEM fitment, and the durability required for years of dependable performance.
 
Every cylinder head is professionally assembled and inspected by Red Line Engine Builders to ensure outstanding quality and consistency before it leaves our shop.
 
Pair this cylinder head with your choice of Red Line performance camshaft and Full Roller Rocker Arm Conversion (Add to Cart) to unlock the full potential of your Toyota 22R or 22RE engine.
 
Street Performer Upgrades
The Street Performer Series receives significant upgrades over the OEM and Torquer Series to support higher RPM, increased airflow, and more aggressive camshaft profiles.
 
Each cylinder head includes:
• Precision Stage 1 Street Port & Polish
• Premium Ferrea one-piece stainless steel intake valves
• Premium Ferrea one-piece stainless steel exhaust valves
• Precision ground and hand-lapped valves
• Silicon bronze valve guides
• 135 lb dual valve springs
• Performance valve stem seals
These premium components provide excellent durability, improved heat transfer, greater valve control, and increased airflow for demanding street performance applications.
 
Premium Valve Seat Materials
The valve seat's primary job is to transfer heat from the valve into the cylinder head, helping prevent burned valves, valve seat recession, and premature wear.
 
To maximize durability and cooling efficiency, Red Line Engine Builders uses premium valve seat materials specifically chosen for the intake and exhaust operating environments.
 
Intake valve seats are manufactured from a high-strength iron and chromium alloy treated with magnesium, allowing them to work harden during service while providing excellent heat transfer and wear resistance.
 
Exhaust valve seats are manufactured from premium 410 stainless steel, providing exceptional resistance to high exhaust temperatures while maintaining outstanding sealing characteristics throughout the life of the engine.
 
Combined with Ferrea stainless valves and bronze valve guides, these materials provide excellent durability for high-performance street use.
