Cylinder Head Replacement. New or Used????
Posted: Fri Aug 31, 2012 6:39 pm
Hi there,
I got a 1991 Delica 4d56 with a cracked cylinder head. Cylinder three!!! seems to be the popular one! Last year the rad had a leak and this probably stressed the head. I will be installing a pyro guage and be extra careful in the future.
Anyways just looking for advice on repairing this engine. There seems to be so many aftermarket options for cylinder heads. Are any of them good? Ideally I want to find a new head that is even better than original???? Is that too much to ask? Or is it good option to find a used head and clean it up?
Any help would be really appreciated.
thanks
