{aftermarket} ISX Cylinder Head - 2dlb - 09-25-2023
Has anyone had any experience with {aftermarket} cylinder heads. They advertise they have a higher nickel content then normal. I have had a new Cummins head on order that is still TBA for 3 weeks now.
Thanks

BUY THE OEM CUMMINS HEAD!! DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE BUY AN AFTERMARKET HEAD!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!
Cracked heads, spun bearings, dropped liners, blown head gaskets, poor fuel mileage, cam damage, and problems that are impossible to diagnose are all possible outcomes of bolting an aftermarket head to your engine. Those situations never end well.

Agreed...
I have seen countless people over the years that totally regret buying those after-garbage heads. They typically only last a few years. They are a terrible investment in the future of your trucking business, gambling your moneys on something that has a known track record for not lasting for s$it. It ends up cost the truck owner WAAAYY more $$$$ in the end, after the engine needs to be re-done all over again.
