Seen an 855 Cummins do this after its 4th overhaul. Curious if it's been overhauled recently and the wrong rings or pistons installed.

Got ahold of John. What a wealth of knowledge and a great guy to talk to. He does have a gasket set for my 866!

Thank you

Have you spoken with him recently? Google says permanently closed on their listing.

Any tips to placing the fire ring in the new head gasket? Been a while, can't for the life of me remember using any sealant to hold the fire ring in place or anything. Thought I'd better ask. Here is a pic if the peened seats on the donor head

E6 2V head interchangeability
Full Floater replied to Full Floater's topic in Engine and Transmission
I keep getting an error code 200 when trying to upload a pic today, but on my parts head that is going on, the exhaust valve seats have some peening around them. Was this factory? I haven't noticed before, but also never paid much attention. Haven't pulled the bad head yet to look at that one. I know this parts head has been off before years ago for an inframe, so maybe something was done to the seats or someone peened them to prevent them from falling out. I will continue to try to upload the pic until it lets me -

Thanks fellas! -
Needing to do a quick and dirty front head swap on a 237 for someone here quick. It has a loose valve seat on cyl 3. I have a couple parts engines. Are the front and rear heads interchangeable? Just curious so I can use whatever appears best after pulling them. No time for sending it away for any machine work. I guess there's nothing much that can be done with the existing seats in the donor head to help prevent them dropping, is there?
-
Excellent heads up on the cracking heads. Thank you.
-
Any chance that it's sucking air into the fuel system, or fuel restriction?
-
Excellent. That makes the project more realistic, as I'm sure the bolts are getting hard to source also, AND likely quite pricey!
-
What are the thoughts on re-using the heads bolts on these?
-
Me too. I understand that they were not the BEST platform out there, but if we have some good running ones, i'd like to keep them that way and use them within their limitations, reliably....for as long as we can
-
I believe those are E9 kits. Seems like a good price however, for an E9
-
Thank you! Is that the proper "fix" for them?
-
Wow, that's good information. Thank you.
-
I have a previously good running 866, that has dropped a valve seat. No engine damage. I realize that most parts are near obsolete for these now, but if there are any lingering upper gasket sets out there somewhere that can be had, I will give this particular engine another chance before it's pulled and parted out. Any current leads on 866 head and manifold gasket sets?

Thank you gents

What kind of fuel supply pressure (from the lift pump, to the injection pump) should I be seeing with an Ambac pump E6? Are we in the 10-20psi supply pressure range? Thanks

E6, setting injection timing via pulse adapter
Full Floater replied to Full Floater's topic in Engine and Transmission
Totally. I'm pretty sure it was me that was not accurate enough with it
