Product Description
The ATS 103-910-2164 Fire Ring Parts Kit is designed for 1994–early 1998 5.9L Cummins 12-valve engines requiring maximum head gasket sealing under high boost and extreme cylinder pressure. This kit is essential for performance builds where factory sealing solutions are no longer sufficient.
Fire ringing the cylinder head provides superior sealing by embedding stainless steel rings into the head, preventing combustion gases from escaping under high boost conditions. This helps eliminate head gasket failure and allows the engine to safely handle increased horsepower and aggressive tuning.
Whether you're building a competition truck, high-horsepower street setup, or heavy towing rig, this ATS fire ring kit delivers the durability and reliability needed to keep your Cummins running strong under extreme conditions.
