6.2 cylinder head application

[boondock]

Can someone confirm that the following 6.2 diesel cylinder head is appropriate
for a CUCV:
GM part # 12570721/casting # 10137567.
Thanks.

6.2 is a 6.2. Engine parts will interchange with any 6.2

HOWEVER; if you are replacing one busted cylinder head on an engine, it needs to match the other head on the engine, in regards to valve sizes, chamber size, etc...

Did you buy those off of GL?
I see that an auction ended with 7 heads brand new for 591.00
Thats a sweet deal

And i would replace the heads in pairs to avoid any difference that there may be (c or j code, or for 6.5 will have different precups i.e. slightly different compression)

ok here is a question are 6.2 l heads less restrictive then the 6.5 heads?? I have a 6.5 navistar sitting in the crate and if thats the case i will put the 6.2 heads on it. But to me that doesnt make much sence.

doesnt answer the question of 6.5 heads on 6.2 or vice versa
