- An Interview By Charlie Fish The Owner Of KC turbos With the owner of Kill Devil Diesel Jared Alderson on Why The Kill Devil Diesel heads are the best in the industry. With these heads your 6.0 is not going to blow any more head gaskets ever again.
Jared is a great dude. I have an early set of his heads when he just started out and they have been great! He is a class act and helped me through a problem totally unrelated to his cylinder heads. Great guy and best of luck to him. Charlie's turbos are badass and my stage II is awesome and was very helpful with my 175/30 recommendations from WDI. Thank you to both for being stand up vendors.
KC turbo's are awesome. Charlie and his crew are top notch. Great people to work with.
KC turbos.. Amazing turbos! I get boost almost instantly. I'm a permanent customer now! Bout to order some performance injectors for this 7.3 soon.
Love my KDD HEADS!!! So far so good. Just finished 8000 mile round trip. No issues. Kdd heads, kdd coated and delipped pistons, Callies stage 2 cam and lifters, exotic headstuds, scorpion turbos, oem rocker arms,billet bridges and mini maxx tuner.
I’m gunna get a stage 2 soon can’t wait good job guys I’ll get another for my dads truck while I’m at it
Love my KC turbo, it has turned my dually into a towing BEAST!!!!! Excellent video
Love to hear that!
Which turbo did you go with?
what turbo did you get?
You had me at everything made in the U.S.A.
Ya know those kdd heads look awesome. And holy that dude is a giant 😂
On the aluminum stage 2 heads are there any hp and tq gains? I just got a set and the shop are just finishing up my truck. I matched it up with kdd stage 2 cam and all upgrades. And to top it off I also got a twisted diesel stage 3 transmission from them too. Thanks for all your work
Do those deep valve pockets allow more valve overlap and more airflow at high RPM? Seems like a better solution than having deep cutouts in the pistons.
Are there any company's out there that build performance ready to go 7.3 heads That anyone knows of ?
What’s up , can you tell me how much it is to fix a cracked piston in a 2008 f350 if you guys were to fix it & it’s tuned a deleted
Fixin to put a new motor in my 05. And yes, I’ll be getting my long block from KDD. I’m just torn between the cast head or aluminum head.
Unless you are going for big power, the iron heads will do just fine!
What is considered big power?
@@KCTURBOS ^?
I run the KDD heads ony truck and have had no problems. If I get a second truck, I'll get another set for the other truck.
When you do, KDD now has their ICON series heads. They are ported, stronger and better all around.
Why does the industry not use aluminum for the heads as a whole more ? I would love to see a cummins aluminum heads. I too use a boring bar when doing orings on my personal heads. I always wondered why more people dont do it like that . I like using a much thicker oring than whats recommended with normal amount of protrusion . I have a dailly driver Cummins that sees 90 psi and takes it like a champ.
I see that tekton 18 mm socket ;)
The aluminum heads seem to not be available so i was told.
Just wondering on how hard your loading that SBC lifter with the extra valve seat pressure and has this elluded to any excessive cam wear? Especially at hard continuous load towing over the rockies??
The lifters used in the 6.0 are Mahle and are very robust from the factory. We have tested the heavier springs for years on high HP/TQ trucks with great success, zero issues. Typically with heavy towing, 120lbs springs are not needed. Our testing has been all over the US including high elevations.
One question with the references to Duramaxs and 6.7 Powerstrokes in regard to Aluminum heads. Theyre both 6 Bolt head engines
That is correct, 6 bolt heads.
Do u have 6.7 heads
please come out with a 7.3 head!!!!
yes I want some!
I just upgraded from 7.3 to 6.0 never going back
I would like to know how much aluminum heads cost for a 60 2007.
$3499.00 for the aluminum kcturbos.com/products/kdd-icon-series-6-0-aluminum-heads-6-0-powerstroke-2003-2007?_pos=3&_sid=142d44ac3&_ss=r
What u guys think about banks power?
How much for a set of 6.0 heads for a 2006
Try oven cleaner to clean soot out of head ports.
Great Idea!
Damn Charlie are you like 5’4 or something you look short as hell !
Charlie is 6'1" LOL
@@KCTURBOS Well damn how tall is that taller fellow in the video ??? 7’ lol

Bronze valve guides?????
Are you asking if these heads have bronze valve guides? They do not. From KDDs website: "The iron matrix valve guides are diamond honed to size leaving a smooth cross-hatch finish in the valve guide similar to the cylinder bore, which provides superior oiling and wear resistance in the demanding diesel application"
KC TURBOS yeah that’s what I’m asking. The guides on stock heads from Ford/International wear out quickly. I see a lot of aftermarket head manufacturers spec bronze.
@@zackzander425Understandable, yeah not sure why some of the other guys do that. Bronze is soft and wears out, These will not wear out.
Just hope you don't need um in a hurry...... I looked for 2 weeks for a set of kdd aluminum heads AND\OR promaxx aluminum heads and NOBODY in the whole USA had them on shelf..... A diesel supply shops "in stock" is not our "in stock"
