Find the right TD5 cylinder head parts
Match the parts to the work being carried out. A damaged cylinder head, routine head gasket replacement and a tuned engine requiring uprated fasteners are separate jobs with different parts requirements.
| Job | Best place to start | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Replace a damaged TD5 cylinder head | AMC TD5 replacement cylinder head | Confirm whether the engine is an early 10P or late 15P and select the correct head |
| Replace a TD5 head gasket | TD5 head gaskets | Match the required one-hole, two-hole or three-hole gasket thickness |
| Replace the standard cylinder head bolts | TD5 cylinder head bolt kits | Select the required brand and confirm that a complete standard stretch-bolt set is being ordered |
| Fit stronger reusable head fasteners | Alive Tuning uprated head stud and nut kit | Do not confuse the uprated stud kit with standard replacement stretch bolts |
| Find supporting top-end parts | TD5 cylinder head parts | Check the individual part number, engine fitment, quantity and parts disturbed during dismantling |
Check TD5 cylinder head fitment
Defender TD5 and Discovery 2 TD5 engines share many cylinder head components, but the replacement head, gasket thickness and fixing arrangement must still match the particular engine and build.
Confirm whether the engine is an early 10P or late 15P before selecting an AMC replacement cylinder head.
Select the correct one-hole, two-hole or three-hole gasket rather than ordering by vehicle model alone.
Standard cylinder head bolts are stretch bolts. The Alive Tuning kit uses a different reusable stud and nut arrangement.
Check injector seals, locating dowels, gaskets, fixings and other top-end parts disturbed during the cylinder head work.
AMC TD5 replacement cylinder heads
AMC replacement cylinder heads are available for early 10P and late 15P TD5 engines. Select the correct engine version and check the product page for the supplied head assembly contents and any additional gaskets, seals or fixings required for the rebuild.
Standard TD5 head bolts and uprated head studs
Standard TD5 cylinder head bolt kits contain replacement stretch bolts for normal cylinder head refitting. The Alive Tuning stud and nut kit provides stronger reusable cylinder head clamping for rebuilt, tuned and high-boost engines. These are different fixing systems rather than interchangeable quality levels of the same bolt kit.
