Heads

I phoned up Power Stroke Shop today and he said that there are some troubles with the new heads. Said that there have been recalls (not sure why) and that I have to call him back on monday.

Also he said that it was best to get it done at the dealership cause not just the heads could be warped but the engine block itself. Is this true?

heads yes block no.

no recall heard on my side of the street.

heads usually get replaced because ford does not want to pay to get head magnufluxed or leveled, so it is techs discretion to replace heads or not

That's odd that PowerStrokeShop would say that. Like everyone else said..Heads YES Easily...Block NO...Not on a PowerStroke. Anything is possible I guess.
