Need a new head, found this

[whitneyj]

Blew the fire rings out of my p-pumped 24V and want to go to o-rings so I'm looking at buying a new head. I've been looking at stock replacements but finding them in the $1500 range, then found this on racingjunk.com

CNC PORTED 24 VALVE CUMMINS HEAD For Sale

For $3K it'll be at my door-$2000 for machine work, $500 core, $250 to have the intake milled, drilled, and tapped, $150 for cutting it for o-rings, and $100 shipping.

Worth it?

Hell no!

For 3K it better come with a months supply of tastykakes. LOL

That answers that. Thanks!

I don't think $3k is terrible. But who did the work?? My head build will be about $2500 with firerings, porting, valve job, new seats, and a side draft.intake

Ok so how much better is this then stock? How much boost pressure drop should you see if one was pushing 75# through a stock head?

Well if you know that's not the answer, then why did you ask the question?

There is no way how to tell how much boost you'll drop, btw

The reason I asked was it said stage 1. Is that even worth buying? I don't see it worth 2k for I minimal ported head. Anyone on here running one of these head with results?

220 221 whatever it takes.

Id be careful about who does the porting. Its real easy to screw it up, and takes a lot of know-how to get good flow and swirl.
I decided to go with the OE cummins head. No worries about what the metallurgy might be, seeing as how theyre all made in china but cummins does the QC on these.
also, are you porting the intake? what runner are you using?
