Default I need a new 12V head

Why mess with a "used" head and take the chance if buying one that may be bad?.

Call PDR Diesel Performance and buy a new one from a shop that knows diesel performance.There are a couple of cylinder head internet sales places available if you feel lucky.One of my buddies went through some place down south,the name escapes me now,and came to bragging about how cheap be bought one.When it came it was a China casting,needed decked to be flat and still had to be o-ringed.He could have bought one from PDR for less than what he had in it and he learned a lesson.Your truck your choice.

Hamilton will be coming out with their own head very soon. I'm excited to see it. With what has happen to my truck I may be getting one.
