GM Duramax 6.6L — Gator Head Studs (2001–2016)
Engineered to protect your 6.6L Duramax diesel engine (LB7, LLY, LBZ, LMM, LML) under extreme stress, the Gator Heavy Duty Head Stud Kit delivers superior clamping force designed to prevent head gasket failures in the most demanding applications.
Key Features:
- Heavy Duty Construction: Built to withstand high boost pressures, heavy towing loads, and aggressive tuning.

- Durability and Reliability: Unlike factory head bolts that stretch and fail under stress, these studs are engineered for maximum longevity.
