Ruich Value is a specialized manufacturer of Heavy Duty Engine Components, dedicated to keeping the legends of the highway running. The Caterpillar 3406C is known as one of the most reliable transitional engines in trucking history, bridging the gap between mechanical and electronic injection. We provide the robust casting replacements needed to extend the service life of these million-mile engines.
The Caterpillar 3406C Cylinder Head (OEM 110-5096) is the definitive “Late Style” casting. Unlike the earlier, thinner castings prone to cracking, our 110-5096 replacement features a reinforced deck structure and optimized internal water jackets. This head is designed for Direct Injection (DI) applications and features the standard Square Intake Ports, making it a versatile solution for 3406C, 3406B, and even early 3406E rebuilds.

Technician’s Note: The 3406C engine series came with both Square and Round intake ports depending on the specific arrangement. This head (110-5096) typically has Square Ports. Before ordering, verify your intake manifold shape. If your manifold has round ports, you may need a square-port manifold or an adapter to ensure a proper seal without boost leaks.

Yes, in many cases. The 110-5096 casting is a crossover part that fits late 3406C and early 3406E (typically 5EK or 6TS serials). However, you must confirm if your original head has square ports. If you have a late 3406E or C15 Acert, you might need a different part number.
The 110-5096 head features square ports. If your 3406C intake manifold has round ports, they will not match perfectly. You can either source a square-port manifold (common on 3406E) or verify if you need a different casting. Ruich Value supplies the standard square port version.
This product listing is for a Bare Cylinder Head (casting with valve guides and seats installed). We recommend using new valves, springs, and rotators during the rebuild. Loaded assemblies are available upon special request.
