CYLINDER HEAD
DESCRIPTION
The aluminum alloy cylinder heads feature cross-
flow type intake and exhaust ports. Valve guides and
seat inserts are powdered metal. Valves are arranged
in a “V”, with each camshaft on center. To improve
combustion speed the chambers are a compact spher-
ical design with a squish area of approximately 30
percent of the piston top area. The cylinder heads are
common to either cylinder bank by reversing the
direction of installation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING—CYLINDER HEAD
GASKET
A cylinder head gasket leak can be located between
adjacent cylinders or between a cylinder and the
adjacent water jacket.
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket
leaking between adjacent cylinders are:
• Loss of engine power
• Engine misfiring
• Poor fuel economy
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket
leaking between a cylinder and an adjacent water
jacket are:
• Engine overheating
• Loss of coolant
• Excessive steam (white smoke) emitting from
exhaust
• Coolant foaming
CYLINDER-TO-CYLINDER LEAKAGE TEST
To determine if an engine cylinder head gasket is
leaking between adjacent cylinders, follow the proce-
dures in Cylinder Compression Pressure Test (Refer
to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). An
engine cylinder head gasket leaking between adja-
cent cylinders will result in approximately a 50–70%
reduction in compression pressure.
CYLINDER-TO-WATER JACKET LEAKAGE TEST
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING WITH COOLANT PRES-
SURE CAP REMOVED.
VISUAL TEST METHOD
With the engine cool, remove the coolant pressure
cap. Start the engine and allow it to warm up until
thermostat opens.
If a large combustion/compression pressure leak
exists, bubbles will be visible in the coolant.
COOLING SYSTEM TESTER METHOD
WARNING: WITH COOLING SYSTEM TESTER IN
PLACE, PRESSURE WILL BUILD UP FAST. EXCES-
SIVE
PRESSURE
BUILT
UP,
BY
CONTINUOUS
ENGINE OPERATION, MUST BE RELEASED TO A
SAFE PRESSURE POINT. NEVER PERMIT PRES-
SURE TO EXCEED 138 kPa (20 psi).
Install Cooling System Tester 7700 or equivalent to
pressure cap neck. Start the engine and observe the
tester’s pressure gauge. If gauge pulsates with every
power stroke of a cylinder a combustion pressure
leak is evident.
CHEMICAL TEST METHOD
Combustion leaks into the cooling system can also
be checked by using Bloc-Chek Kit C-3685-A or
equivalent. Perform test following the procedures
supplied with the tool kit.

CLEANING
To ensure engine gasket sealing, proper surface
preparation must be performed, especially with the
use of aluminum engine components and multi-layer
steel cylinder head gaskets.
NOTE: Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gaskets require
a scratch free sealing surface.
Remove all gasket material from cylinder head and
block (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE). Be careful not to gouge or scratch the alumi-
num head sealing surface.
Clean all engine oil passages.
INSPECTION
(1) Before cleaning, check for leaks, damage and
cracks.
(2) Clean cylinder head and oil passages.
(3) Check cylinder head for flatness (Fig. 12).
(4) Cylinder head must be flat within:
• Standard dimension = less than 0.05 mm (0.002
inch.)
• Service Limit = 0.2 mm (0.008 inch.)
• Grinding Limit = Maximum of 0.2 mm (0.008
inch.) is permitted.
CAUTION: 0.20 mm (0.008 in.) MAX is a combined
total dimension of the stock removal limit from cyl-
inder head and block top surface (Deck) together.
INSTALLATION
The cylinder head bolts are tightened using a
torque plus angle procedure. The bolts must be
examined BEFORE reuse. If the threads are
necked down the bolts must be replaced (Fig.
13).
Necking can be checked by holding a scale or
straight edge against the threads. If all the threads
do not contact the scale the bolt must be replaced.
CAUTION: When cleaning cylinder head and cylin-
der block surfaces, DO NOT use a metal scraper
because the surfaces could be cut or ground. Use
ONLY a wooden or plastic scraper.
(1) Clean sealing surfaces of cylinder head and
block.

CAUTION: Ensure that the correct head gaskets are
used and are oriented correctly on cylinder block.
The 3.5L engine head gaskets have perfectly round
combustion sealing rings. The 3.2L engine does
NOT
have
perfectly
round
combustion
sealing
rings.

locating
dowels.
Ensure the gasket is installed on the correct side of
engine (Fig. 14).
(3) Install cylinder head over locating dowels.
(4) Before
installing
the
bolts,
lubricate
the
threads with engine oil.
(5) Tighten the cylinder head bolts in the sequence
shown in (Fig. 15). Using the 4 step torque-turn
method, tighten according to the following torque val-
ues:

• Step 2: All to 88 N·m (65 ft. lbs.)
• Step 3: All (again) to 88 N·m (65 ft. lbs.)
• Step 4: + 90° Turn Do not use a torque
wrench for this step.
(6) Bolt torque after 90° turn should be over 122
N·m (90 ft. lbs.) in the tightening direction. If not,
replace the bolt.
(7) Clean right rear timing belt cover O-ring seal-
ing surfaces and grooves (Fig. 11). Lubricate new
O-rings with Mopar

CAMSHAFT(S)
DESCRIPTION
A single overhead camshaft per cylinder head pro-
vides valve actuation. The left camshaft accommo-
dates a cam sensor pick-up wheel and is therefore
longer. Each camshaft is supported by four bearing
journals. Thrust for each camshaft is taken at a
thrust plate attached to the rear of each cylinder
head. Right and left camshaft driving sprockets are
not interchangeable because of the cam sensor
pick-up wheel on the left sprocket. Camshaft bearing
lubrication is provided via oil feed passage through
each rocker shaft pedestal dowel.
OPERATION
The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft via drive
sprockets and belt. The camshaft has precisely
machined lobes to provide accurate valve timing and
duration.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - MEASURING
CAMSHAFT END PLAY
(1) Oil camshaft journals and install camshaft
WITHOUT rocker arms. Install rear cam caps and
tighten screws to specified torque.
(2) Using a suitable tool, move camshaft as far
rearward as it will go.
(3) Zero dial indicator (Fig. 19).
(4) Move camshaft as far forward as it will go.
(5) Record reading on dial indicator. For end play
specification, (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICA-
TIONS).
