  1. #1
    L92 Heads came on all 2007 GM based Vehicles with 6.2L Motor

    I punched in the 2008 (just be sure) Cadillac Escalade ESV

    Valve Cover LH/DS GM Part# 12570427
    Valve Cover RH/PS GM Part# 12582224

    ****These Part numbers include the Valve Cover, Gakset and Bolts

    I ordered the Valve Covers from www.Number1GMParts.com
    There item price is a little more the GMPartsdirect.com but their shipping is alot cheaper so it actually came out to $15 less the GMPartsdirect.com
    can also call them which is cool 1-561-686-4434 or 1-888-890-1760

    Coolant Plug GM Part# 12553191
    Air Bleeder Hose GM Part# 12570528
    2 Clamps for the Hose Gm Part# 25526358
    I got this from local dealer b/c Shipping kills the deal by far!

    Also got
    Coolant By Pass Pipe GM Part# 12604711
    (Got from Number1 b/c shipping made it cheaper!)

    It originally looks like this




    New one looks like this

    Keep your fingers crossed and pray a lot that you dont get those rear two cylinders too hot and loose a ringland. A lot of people have seen cylinder temps get too high in the rear cylinders because of poor coolant circulation and the older style crossover which helps to bring the coolant to the rear as well has been know to help fight that.

    I couldn't find a brand a new one...know where I can get one?

    Under what conditions where the cylinder's getting hot? I don't plan on hot lapping the truck...just a nice little DD...my HP goals are b/w 550-600 when it is all said and done. I am extremely interested in entering the Sandhills Open Road Race in Arnold, Nebraska. I want to compete in the 80mph trap. http://www.arnoldne.org/pages/sorc
