Does anyone know where I might find a good used head for a '96 12V? I am located in Louisville, KY. Thanks!

 

I was just in louisville with my 12v 3 weeks ago hehe

 

then why didn't you stop and give me the good head off your truck?

 

You can get new ones off eBay for around $600 shipped.

 

send a pm to cummins_guy. hes got the best prices ive found so far by along shot

 

Shoulda told me you needed it! I was downtown for 2 whole days!

 

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.

 

Another good place is Peak Diesel Performance - which is the guys that used to run PDR:

They might not be the cheapest around but you wont get screwed.
