Application
This cylinder head is specific to the Dodge T214 engine code, as used in the 3/4-ton WC-series lorries: WC-51, WC-52, WC-53, WC-54, WC-55, WC-56, WC-57, WC-58, WC-59, WC-60, WC-61, WC-64 (1942-1945) and WC-62, WC-63 6x6 lorries (1943-1945). Also applicable to some 1/2-ton T215 engines (WC-21 through WC-27, WC-40 through WC-43 from 1941-1942), as T214 and T215 share the same engine block.
Installation notes
Cylinder head bolt torque according to TM9-803: 52-57 ft-lbs for stud nuts, 65-70 ft-lbs for cap screws. Check that cylinder head gasket is compatible with this head. Valve adjustment ports must be freely accessible. Use copper head gasket spray for optimal sealing.
Compatibility
Fits T214 (230ci, 23" block length) and T215 engines (same long block, part number 870228). Not compatible with smaller T207 (218ci) or T211 (218ci/230ci) engines from earlier WC production. Also suitable for T223 engine (WC-62/63 6x6 lorries). May be used on later civilian 230ci flathead-6 engines, but verify accessory mounting.
Historical context
The Dodge T214 engine was the workhorse of the WW2 3/4-ton lorries. With 92 bhp at low revs, this reliable flathead-6 was designed for high torque below 2500 rpm — ideal for heavy military service in all conditions.
