Aluminum heads on 6.7 ???
This article says the 6.7 has aluminum heads, that makes me nervous. Block is graphite cast iron.
Seems like aluminum heads are usually OK until you overheat, but I think they are risking a lot of trouble. Seems a little bizzare to me with all the 6.0L head problems they had, and those heads are cast iron.

Hope it doesn't end up being another Powerjoke. Wonder if Destroked is already working on a conversion? Last edited by bob00stroke : 11-18-2009 at 06:12 AM. |

The d-max has aluminum heads, and we all know how much power they can push. Aluminum heads should be the least of your strength worries, take a look at the how they make the blocks ![]() I'm not worries, I think this engine WILL set the new benchmark for the other two to follow, and with the d-max being a thing of the past soon, who the hell knows what will happen in the diesel truck market |

I guess we are kinda getting off topic, but ya all got me curious about this. Here is a link about it all. Sounds like from '06 on the DMAX is made by GM only and all the design changes from then on are GM. Duramax V8 engine - Wikipedia |
