HEAD OPTIONS?

HEAD OPTIONS?

Postby defwin » Tue Oct 05, 2010 5:53 pm

I have a 89 2.6l ram 50 with jet valves. The head is cracked.
What heads can be used on the block?
What's the best?
Thanks

Well here is what I did with my 2.6. but it is first generation. I don't know if this type of thing will work with yours.

How do you tell if its first or second generation?

1st gen 79-86; 2nd gen 87 up. All 2.6 blocks are the same, the intakes are different, but should interchange. Caravan/K car 2.6 heads interchange, with the caravan not having jet valves. BUT, they cracked easy; good luck finding a good one.
