LB7 Duramax Cylinder Head Removal: A Comprehensive Guide

It is time to remove the heads from my LB7 Duramax so that we can replace the gaskets, replace head bolts with head studs, port & polish the heads, and replace the tired injectors with LDS 45% over sac injectors. Worked performed on my 2001 LB7 Duramax GMC Sierra 3500 Crew Cab Long Bed Dually. Stay tuned because on the next episode I show you how I rebuilt the duramax heads and gave it a stage 1 port and polish.
