CYLINDER HEAD
DESCRIPTION
The cylinder head is constructed of cast iron and is
a one piece cross flow design with four valves per cyl-
inder. The arrangement of two intake and two
exhaust valves per cylinder allows for a centrally
located injector. The cylinder head also includes an
integral intake manifold, an integral thermostat
housing, and a longitudal fuel return rifle, which
exits at the rear of the head. The 24 valve design
also includes integrally cast valve guides and hard-
ened intake and exhaust valve seat inserts.

CLEANING
CLEANINGÐCYLINDER HEAD
CAUTION: Do not wire brush head surface while
fuel injectors are still installed. Fuel injector dam-
age can result.
Remove fuel injector before cleaning (if not already
removed during cylinder head removal).
Clean the carbon from the injector nozzle seat with
a nylon or brass brush.
Scrape the gasket residue from all gasket surfaces.
Wash the cylinder head in hot soapy water solution
(88ÉC or 140ÉF).
After rinsing, use compressed air to dry the cylin-
der head.
Polish the gasket surface with 400 grit paper. Use
an orbital sander or sanding block to maintain a flat
surface.
CLEANINGÐCROSSHEADS
Clean all crossheads in a suitable solvent. If neces-
sary, use a wire brush or wheel to remove stubborn
deposits. Rinse in hot water and blow dry with com-
pressed air.

hot water and blow dry with compressed air. If nec-
essary, use a wire brush or wheel to remove stubborn
deposits.
INSPECTION
INSPECTION - CYLINDER HEAD
Inspect the cylinder head for cracks in the combus-
tion surface. Pressure test any cylinder head that is
visibly cracked. A cylinder head that is cracked
between the injector bore and valve seat can be pres-
sure tested and reused if OK; however, if the crack
extendsintothe valve seat insert bore, the cylinder
headmustbe replaced.
Visually inspect the cylinder block and head com-
bustion surfaces for localized dips or imperfections.
Check the cylinder head and block combustion sur-
faces for overall out-of-flatness. If either the visual or
manual inspection exceeds the limits, then the head
or block must be surfaced.
Check the top surface for damage caused by the
cylinder head gasket leaking between cylinders.
Inspect the block and head surface for nicks, ero-
sion, etc.
Check the head distortion. Maximum overall vari-
ation end to end is 0.305 mm (0.012 inch) (Fig. 13),
and maximum overall variation side to side 0.076
mm ( .003 in.).
DO NOT proceed with the in-chassis overhaul if
the cylinder head or block surface is damaged or not
flat (within specifications).
Check block surface for distortion. Maximum vari-
ation end-to-end is 0.076 mm ( .003 in.), side-to-side
0.051 mm (.002).Visually inspect the cylinder head bolts for dam-
aged threads, corroded/pitted surfaces, or a reduced
diameter due to bolt stretching.
If the bolts are not damaged, their ªfree lengthº
should be measured using the cap screw stretch
gauge provided with the replacement head gasket.
Place the head of the bolt against the base of the slot
and align the bolt with the straight edge of gauge
(Fig. 14). If the end of the bolt touches the foot of the
gauge, the boltmustbe discarded.The maximum
bolt free length is 132.1 mm (5.200 in.).
INSPECTIONÐCROSSHEADS
Inspect the crossheads for cracks and/or excessive
wear on rocker lever and valve tip mating surfaces
(Fig. 15). Replace any crossheads that exhibit abnor-
mal wear or cracks.

INSPECTIONÐPUSHRODS
Inspect the push rod ball and socket for signs of
scoring. Check for cracks where the ball and the
socket are pressed into the tube (Fig. 16).
Roll the push rod on a flat work surface with the
socket end hanging off the edge (Fig. 17). Replace
any push rod that appears to be bent.

INTAKE/EXHAUST VALVES &
SEATS
DESCRIPTION
The valves are made of heat resistant steel, and
have chrome plated stems to prevent scuffing. The
intake and exhaust valves are both similar in head
diameter and overall length, but they have unique
face angles which makes them non-interchangeable.
The valves are distinguished by unique dimples on
the exhaust valve head (Fig. 21).
The exhaust valve springs are made from high
strength, chrome silicon steel. The exhaust valve
springs are also exhaust brake compatible.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - VALVES, GUIDES
AND SPRINGS
REMOVAL
(1) Remove cylinder head (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
CYLINDER HEAD - REMOVAL).
(2) Support cylinder head on stands, or install
head bolts upside down (through combustion surface
side) to protect injector tips from damage from work
bench.
(3) Install the valve spring compressor mounting
base as shown in (Fig. 22).
(4) Install the compressor top plate, washer, and
nut. Using a suitable wrench, tighten the nut (clock-
wise) to compress the valve springs (Fig. 23) and
remove the locks.
(5) Rotate the compressor nut counter-clockwise to
relieve tension on the springs. Remove the spring
compressor.(6) Remove the retainers, springs, valve seals (if
necessary), and valves (Fig. 24). Arrange or number
all components so they can be installed in their orig-
inal locations.
(7) Repeat the procedure on all cylinders to be ser-
viced.
CLEANING
Clean the valve stems with crocus cloth or a
Scotch-BriteŸ pad. Remove carbon with a soft wire
brush. Clean valves, springs, retainers, and valve
retaining locks in a suitable solvent. Rinse in hot
water and blow dry with compressed air.
