The Speedmaster PCE279.1036 is a complete chromoly head stud kit engineered for Dodge Ram Cummins 5.9L and 6.7L 24-valve diesel engines. Featuring 8740 chromoly construction with 12-point design, this kit delivers the clamping force and durability required for high-performance diesel builds and aggressive daily-driving applications. Head studs provide superior reliability compared to factory bolts, especially under elevated cylinder pressures and turbo-boost conditions.
Built for both street and competition use, this Speedmaster kit is ideal for rebuilt or performance-tuned Cummins powerplants. The 8740 chromoly material resists fatigue and stretch, ensuring consistent head gasket sealing across thermal cycles. The 12-point fastener geometry allows controlled torque application and reduces the risk of fastener galling. Perfect for hot-rod builds, engine swaps, overhauls, and extreme-duty diesel applications where factory hardware may fall short.
