Mopar® Cylinder Heads FAQ: Everything You Need to Know
What is a Cylinder Head?
It's a housing, often comprised of cast-iron or aluminum, located on the top of your Chrysler or Dodge vehicle's engine block. It contains several major engine parts -- among them, intake and exhaust valves, springs and lifters, and the combustion chamber.
What Does One Do?
Three things. One role is taking in air and fuel via ports or tracts and expelling exhaust gases. Another is helping keep the many parts of the engine cooler by channeling coolant into the block. The last is preventing water and oil from leaking into the combustion chambers, with help from a head gasket.
What Types of Mopar® Cylinder Heads are There?
There are three main ones.
Flathead cylinder heads, for one, help protect cylinder blocks, and they have no moving parts.
Overhead valve cylinder heads, for another example, have camshafts above them, and their pushrods and valves are connected, smoothing out airflow.
The third, overhead camshaft cylinder heads, have camshafts located inside them, which eliminates the need for pushrods; they optimize airflow and increase engine efficiency.
What are the Signs of a Bad Cylinder Head?
There are many, including:
- Cracks (often from engine overheats)
- Oil leaks
- Coolant leaks (which can cause further overheating)
- A misfiring engine
- General engine performance problems
If you think yours is bad, do a thorough inspection and replace your cylinder head, if not your entire engine, according to the results. Before you buy either, however, be sure it's the genuine article.
Why Buy a Genuine OEM Cylinder Head?
Mopar® manufactures them to fit your brand and model specifically, whether you drive a Fiat, Ram, or Jeep. That's a fitment guarantee that you may not get on the aftermarket.
