100% OEM Authentic Nissan Parts
This Nissan SR20DET "Notchtop" Bare Cylinder Head is the foundational component for an S14 or S15 Silvia engine build. Since this is a "bare" head, it is designed for builders who plan to install their own valvetrain, such as aftermarket cams, springs, and retainers.
Product Overview
Engine Compatibility: Specifically for the SR20DET Notchtop found in the Nissan Silvia S14 and S15.
Condition: Bare cylinder head (no valves, springs, or cams included).
Key Design Feature: The "Notchtop" design includes the characteristic notch in the casting to accommodate the Variable Cam Timing (VCT) system found on later SR20DET models, which provides better mid-range torque compared to the earlier "Redtop" or "Blacktop" S13 engines.
Technical Specifications & Benefits
High-Flow Potential: The Notchtop head is often preferred for its improved port geometry and factory VCT support.
Customization Ready: Ideal for high-horsepower builds where factory valvetrain components would otherwise be discarded for performance upgrades (e.g., Tomei, GSC, or Brian Crower components).
Authenticity: Sourced as a genuine Nissan/Nismo component, ensuring factory-spec tolerances for deck flatness and port alignment.
