Hey Guys,
As the topic states. I know the easiest way is if it has a red rocker cover and the T on the front of the cylinder head. But what do the number mean next to the T of the head? i.e. my Tickford Head says 95 DT From an XR6 Sedan, where as another Tickford head says 69DT but this is from a Ute. Do these numbers really matter? Thank you |

The number at the start refers to the year the head was made I.e 95DT is a 1995 tickford head, T at the end means tickford.

Not sure about the ute one mate, but what I said is correct in regard to sedans/wagons...

are you sure it was 69 and not a 96DT head? i assumed it was a typo in your first post

96 would sound more correct...

Thanks for the quick replies guys.
I too was a little confused when I saw 69 DT. I am buying a motor from someone and they must have mistyped 69 instead of 96. |

troyman just said on another post, that the 96DT head is a hybrid head so it'll run the au rocker setup

On S lightly different note:
Does anyone know why the EL Fairmont Ghia and the XR6 Ute had 162 KW, while the XR6 had 164KW? Thank You |

cant say for certain, but could have been in the computer mapping or possibly different exhaust? someone else here may be able to clarify it

The numbers, ie: 96DT, ....the numbers are the design year .....and the DT, as in the T, is for Tickford.......if that makes any sense.....
