OEM-quality used cylinder heads at Premium Used Auto Parts

A used cylinder head pulled from a low-mileage donor engine gives you the correct casting and valve configuration at 50–70% less than a new or remanufactured unit — and heads differ enough between engine variants and banks that matching yours matters.

Before a cylinder head is listed we pressure test it for cracks, check the gasket surface for flatness, and inspect valves and seats for wear, then confirm the exact engine and bank against your VIN before it ships.

Pressure tested for cracks in the casting and water jacket

You asked, we answered

Real questions about the parts we sell most — engines, transmissions, and everything in between. Don't see yours? Call 1-800-606-1107.

How many miles are typically on a used engine before it's sold?
+

Every used engine comes from a donor vehicle with documented mileage, which we disclose upfront. Each unit is compression-tested and inspected before listing, so you know exactly what you're getting.

Will a used transmission shift as smoothly as a new one?
+

Yes — transmissions go through function testing before they're approved for sale, checking for smooth shifting across gears. We only list units that meet our performance standard.

Can you match an axle assembly or drive shaft to my exact trim?
+

Absolutely. Send us your VIN, and our team verifies the part against your vehicle's exact specs, since drivetrain components vary by trim and drive type (2WD vs. 4WD, for example).

Are used airbags and ABS modules safe to install?
+

Yes, with the right precautions. Airbags and ABS modules are pulled from vehicles with no deployment or damage history, and each is inspected before sale. We recommend installation by a qualified technician for safety-critical parts like these.

Do turbochargers and superchargers come pre-tested for boost performance?
+

Every forced-induction unit is inspected for shaft play, seal condition, and housing damage before it's listed, so you're not buying a part that's already on its way out.

What's covered if a used differential or transfer case fails early?
+

Drivetrain components carry the same 90-day warranty as the rest of our inventory. If a covered part fails within that window, we'll handle replacement or refund directly.
