Air Flow Research

Air Flow Research | Performance Cylinder Heads, Intake Manifolds

Founded in 1970 by Ken Sperling, Air Flow Research pioneered the process of CNC porting cylinder heads, which is now common practice in today's automotive industry. Over the last 45 years, we have been defining technological leadership and flow dynamics to pursue increased performance. This commitment has enabled Air Flow Research to find themselves on the fastest race cars and the most powerful street machines in the country.

Utilizing modern manufacturing techniques and the latest machinery, such as a Browne & Sharpe Coordinate Measuring Machine, fifteen Haas' 5-AXIS CNC machines, three Mazaks, four Newen Epoch valve, Two Mori Seiki 42 pallet systems, and three VF4 Haas machines. AFR stays true to this commitment by manufacturing each piece in our Valencia, California facility just 30 minutes north of Los Angeles.

Most engine builders will acknowledge that the cylinder head is the key to increasing horsepower. Air Flow Research has become one of the companies that have been ahead of the game in cylinder head manufacturing and flow dynamics for more than 45 years. Because of this dedication to high performance, the company's products have found their way through some of the most potent racecars and quickest street vehicles in the United States.

Wide Selection of High-Performance Parts

Originally in its history, Air Flow Research focused on high-power processing of different cylinder heads while inventing novel techniques such as hurricane chambers, quick-burning chambers, D-shaped exhaust ports, CNC-machined cylinder heads, and so on.

With its breakthrough tape CNC machine, the business became a trailblazer. AFR successfully established itself as a top provider to some of America's most successful racing teams. The business was a key advisor for General Motors in the 1980s, producing heads for Chevy engines.

Consistency in Performance and Production

Air Flow Research heads can outflow and surpass their league's rivals. AFR's comprehensive commitment to continuous quality improvement does not end with research and development; the business stays engaged with the racers. While the brand is a market leader today, it continues to invest extensively in next-generation horsepower through new production processes, rigorous dynamometer testing, and in-house flow testing procedures.

Air Flow Research is now training a new generation of racers and technicians to meet the ever-increasing needs of tomorrow's racecar engine manufacturers to maintain their long and historic commitment to high performance.
