All-New PDI CGI Cylinder Head for PACCAR MX-13.

Built from Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) with Inconel intake and exhaust valves for superior heat resistance, strength, and long-term durability in EPA13 engines. Engineered for high cylinder pressures, extended service life, and demanding duty cycles. The PACCAR MX-13 operates under extreme thermal and combustion loads. Traditional gray iron cylinder heads are pushed to their limits under modern emissions-era operating conditions.

PDI’s CGI MX-13 Cylinder Head is engineered to exceed those limits.

By combining Compacted Graphite Iron metallurgy with Inconel intake and exhaust valves, this cylinder head delivers improved resistance to cracking, valve failure, and heat-related distortion. It is ideal for heavy-haul, vocational, and performance-focused rebuilds where durability and uptime matter most.
