Re: [DML] Head assemblies



Mike, can you not just get the heads planed flat? This is a very standard job over here and the Diesel Centre just sent #2727's heads off to be machined as they would with any engine where the head gasket(s) had gone. So the moral is, even if the heads are apparently good, they should have a couple of microns skimmed off anyway when changing the gaskets.

The coolant leak is the effect, not the cause BTW - the engine has probably overheated at some point. There are pics of #2727's engine rebuild here

I am about to embark upon a complete rebuild of an engine on a D that I just
picked up. The heads on it are warped due to a coolant fluid leak and
require replacement, so before breaking down and buying them new I figured I
would put out some feelers here on the list to see if anyone had a set of
good heads from a parts car. Feel free to respond here of via E-mail -

Thanks in advance!
