Really wondering if new heads have new valves or this is where the cores go.

I hear they have the best mills that only use the best ore.

Just got my kitty cat put back together, after seeing all the scoring on my cam, cam rollers and rocker shafts I'm thinking the bearing material from my last turbo is what did those parts in. But #2 piston and liner were very scored and the head had a crack on #3 that was so bad we could hear it leaking compression when rolling it over by hand. Almost 1.7 mil on the motor and the deck had never been cut and where the liners were sinking into it were all uneven. Should have been done when the previous owner inframe it at a mil three.
Got it all back together last night and it's never ran so smooth in the year I've had it. Can't wait to hit the road with it this weekend and see how it does.

What are you guys using for manifold studs/bolts for a 3406E? Have a broken one on the glider and figure we'll have to break off a few more to get it apart. Might as well change them all out.
Buy from CAT or something else?

Yes, they create an air space to help keep exhaust heat out of the head/coolant. The cat ones are welded, the Magnum and IPD are one piece. Have seen a few cat ones break at the weld and go through turbo(s). Haven’t seen one broken in a long time thought.
For future reference no matter what electric car engine your working on (3406e/C15/C16Acert etc) if you order the head gasket set for an NXS serial you get WAY more stuff and they’re cheaper. Like MXS kit costs more and doesn’t come with exhaust sleeves where NXS does for less money. Makes no sense.

Gotcha. So, not knowing what Larson did, I should order the kit with exhaust sleeves.
Thank you!

Gasket isn’t the issue.

I thought I was smart and used stainless on the turbo one time. It was super fun cutting them off with a hack saw blade held in vice grips.

Stainless isn't better? We use stainless bolts and nuts on the manifold/turbo's on the 8.3L Cummins here at work and see way less trouble, and they usually come out better if we have to take them apart?

On mine it galled and they turned into permanent lock nuts. Stainless and something is usually fine, stainless/stainless not so much.
