Cylinder head for Pegaso DW

The cylinder head, part number 1328015, mounts to the top of the engine block to seal the cylinders and form the combustion chambers. This component contains the intake and exhaust ports, valve seats, valve guides, and the mounting points for the fuel injectors. It manages the flow of air and fuel into the cylinders and the expulsion of exhaust gases, while providing a path for heat dissipation during engine operation.

This component is compatible with Pegaso DW and Pegaso DW LEVAS/WITH engine configurations. It maintains the necessary compression levels required for proper engine operation by ensuring a sealed interface with the engine block. Proper installation is required to prevent leaks of combustion gases or engine coolant.

A cylinder head acts as the primary housing for the valve train and combustion process in internal combustion engines. By sealing the cylinders, it allows the engine to generate the pressure needed for the power stroke. It also provides the structural support for the valves and spark plugs or injectors, ensuring that the timing of the gas exchange remains consistent with the movement of the pistons within the engine block.
