Description

New Ford / Mazda 4.0L OHV Cylinder Heads Pair – Ranger, Bronco, Explorer (1990–1995)

Premium Cast Iron OEM-Quality Replacement – Fully Assembled

Restore your engine’s mechanical integrity with this pair of all-new 4.0L OHV ‘Cologne’ cylinder heads, specifically engineered for 1990–1995 Ford Explorer, Ranger, and Mazda B4000 applications. These fresh, high-density cast iron units feature reinforced internal water jackets and an upgraded deck thickness to eliminate the thermal stress cracking common between the intake and exhaust seats in original thin-wall factory castings. Although the gasket surfaces are pre-milled, every unit undergoes an in-house precision verification to ensure the Surface Roughness (Ra) meets the strict requirements for modern composite head gaskets, preventing localized hot spots and chronic coolant seepage. We perform final guide sizing and multi-angle valve seat cutting on our Rottler equipment to ensure perfect valvetrain geometry and a 100% airtight seal. Pressure tested to 60 PSI and built to exceed OEM durability standards, this pair provides a permanent, professional-grade solution for the 4.0L OHV platform.

πŸ› οΈ In-House Machining Process

  • Debris-Free Preparation:Β Every new casting is chemically cleaned and blown out to remove all residual machining oils, metal shavings, and manufacturing debris. This ensures your oiling system remains uncontaminated from the first start-up.

  • In-House Precision Machining:Β Unlike β€œshelf-stock” heads, we perform all final machine work in-house. This includesΒ final guide sizingΒ andΒ precision valve seat cuttingΒ to ensure perfect geometry and clearances before the head reaches the assembly bench.
  • Pressure & Integrity Testing:Β To go beyond the factory standard, we pressure-test every head toΒ 60 PSI. This verifies that the casting is free of porosity leaks or internal defects that could compromise the cooling or oiling systems.

  • Dimensional Inspection:Β Our technicians perform a multi-point inspection of the gasket-sealing surface and bore alignment. This ensures the head is perfectly flat and meets tight OEM tolerances for a flawless fit.

  • Professional Assembly & Setup:Β Valvetrain components are installed and verified in a clean-room environment. We check spring heights and seal seating to ensure the assembly is balanced and ready for high-performance use.

  • Vacuum-Seal Verification:Β Every intake and exhaust port isΒ Vacuum Tested. This guarantees a 100% airtight seal between the valves and seats, ensuring maximum compression and peak performance right out of the box.

They supplied me with a perfect set of heads to bring my 1999 Ford Ranger back to life. Ranger Frank has been in the family since the day he rolled off the showroom floor. Its great to have him back on the road.

Parts arrived as promised. Ported heads gave me that low end torque and high rev HP I was looking for! ...if only I did the cam at the same time.
