2001-2016 Duramax LB7/LLY/LBZ/LMM/LML Cast Iron Cylinder Heads


Pacific Performance Engineering (PPE Power). N. Las Vegas, NV presents PPE’s new Cast Iron Cylinder Heads. These are the ultimate upgrade for the Duramax diesel engine. Cast from high-quality alloyed grey iron, the PPE Cylinder Heads offer elevated fatigue strength, heat, and creep resistance. The denser and stiffer material properties from the cast-iron construction also significantly reduce engine clatter. PPE Cylinder Heads share the same heat expansion rate as the stock cast-iron cylinder block eliminating blown head gaskets. PPE valves are made of superior materials and are fully nitridated. The tapered valve springs’ higher spring rate and lighter chrome moly retainers enable faster response during higher RPMs and eliminate valve float. 3-Year Unlimited Mileage Warranty.
