ABSTRACT:
A cylinder head for an internal combustion engine, having an iron lower base part with inlet and exhaust ports and controlling valves therefor and an aluminum upper support for the camshaft and valve tappets. The upper part includes an open lattice work formed by spaced interconnected segments and curved sections extending between spaced bulkheads integral therewith that can be readily fastened to the base part to provide overhead support for the valve tappets. The lattice work has special expansion and contraction joints that connect into the bulkheads which mount the camshaft so that different rates of thermal expansion and contraction occurring between the lattice work and lower base part will cause deflection of the expansion joint and will not adversely effect the operation of the camshaft or the tappets carried by the bulkheads and lattice work.
