    300TDi new head with International Engines plate.

    Has anyone that has purchased a new 300TDi head from UK or anywhere else noticed on the manifold side of the head a plate attached with Manufactured for "International Engines South America" with the address in Brasil underneath, thanks in advance, Regards Frank.

    Isn't there a 3 litre (?) version of the engine available and plentiful in South America? They could use common heads.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Yes there is a 2.8 that I know of, reason I'm asking is I rang a couple of sellers in the UK and asked where they sourced their heads from. A couple said from Iternational in Brasil the same heads fitted to the 2.8's, they said they sourced their heads from China.
    So I figured if the available heads from S.A. and UK originally came from China I could cut out the middle men and go direct to the manufacturers and save some dollars. As the plate on the head I have has "manufactured for" leads me to believe that they come originally from China, Regards Frank.

    I purchased one from Turners about 15 months ago. I do not recall seeing this plate. Mine was a performance head. Turners do some mods, so if it did have such plate it could have been removed.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."
