Steve Mutter Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Why are cylinder heads for the 6.0 on back order? We have 6.0 cylinder head that has a grove in the fire ring area and needs a head. Both big wearhouses in Canada have no stock and are US screen shows no stock as well. What gives? do they have an update head coming out? It also looks like headgasket kits are low on stock as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Warman Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Sounds like you have an aftermarket modified head... I think BTS is one outfit that would groove your heads for fire rings and supply special head gaskets. Only ever seen 'em on two trucks - the owners had some pretty deep pockets.

Steve Mutter Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 sorry I ment that it has a wear mark in the head where the gaskets sits casuing a low spot in the surface. So we have a head coming but we had to get it from an out of town ford dealer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I argued with ford for days over replacement of one of these when you had to have piror approval. They wanted to reuse the damn thing telling me it was normal. It was far from normal and would have just leaked again down the road. We stock several heads and lots of HG kits. everything has been backordered it seems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
