A universal roll-over cylinder head clamping fixture utilizes columns to support a first and a second pillow block. Each pillow block has a spherical recess that accepts a spherical joint. Spherical joints are positioned on extensions of a device that fastens to and/or supports a first end and a second end of a cylinder head. Each column of the fixture is free to move up or down independently form any other column of the clamping system. The spherical joint and independently operated columns provide a cylinder head clamping fixture that provides rotation and tilting of a cylinder head to any desired position.
