In order to find cracks and porosity in cylinder head castings, particularly in those cast from aluminum, it is necessary to pressurize the water jacket and submerge the head to locate the leaks.

Pressure Testing Kits are quick and easy to use. The kit is affordable for the shop that does only a small quantity of cylinder heads. Pressure test kits are available for most head applications as well as for most cylinder block applications.

Each kit contains a block-off plate that is precision machined from aluminum, all required fasteners, and durable, reinforced rubber gaskets.
