Cylinder Head: Description: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Dodge Journey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The cross flow designed, aluminum cylinder head contains dual over-head camshafts with four valves per cylinder. The valves are arranged in two in-line banks. The intake valves face toward the front of the vehicle. The exhaust valves face the dash panel. The cylinder head incorporates powdered metal valve guides and seats. The cylinder head is sealed to the block using a multi-layer steel head gasket and retaining bolts.
Integral oil galleries provide lubrication passages to the variable camshaft timing phasers, camshafts, and valve mechanisms.
NOTE:
Replacement cylinder heads will come complete with valves, seals, springs, retainers, keepers, lash buckets, and camshafts.
