Product Description
Don’t trust a tired, shrunken factory gasket set when you reseal your 6.5L. The MAHLE HS4021 head set is an OE-quality upper engine gasket kit built specifically for the 1994–1998 GM 6.5L Diesel Standard Output (VIN S, non-H.O.). Solid-core composite head gaskets, steel exhaust manifold gaskets, and molded-rubber intake gaskets deliver a tight, reliable seal so your work truck, tow rig, or fleet vehicle holds compression and coolant under load.

FAQ
Will HS4021 fit my truck?
If you have a 1994–1998 GM 6.5L Diesel Standard Output (VIN S, non-H.O.), HS4021 is the correct head set. If your truck is the High Output version or falls outside this range, step up to MAHLE HS4021A and verify by VIN.
What’s included in the MAHLE HS4021 head set?
HS4021 includes composite head gaskets for both banks, steel exhaust manifold gaskets, molded-rubber intake manifold gaskets, and related upper-engine seals needed to complete head service. Head bolts/studs and exhaust pipe gasket are not included.
Do I need to replace my head bolts?
Yes, MAHLE and most professional engine builders recommend replacing torque-to-yield head bolts during any head gasket job, or upgrading to quality head studs for performance or heavy towing applications.
Does this kit work on High Output (H.O.) 6.5L engines?
No. HS4021 is cataloged for Standard Output VIN S engines. High Output applications use different part numbers – refer to MAHLE HS4021A and verify your VIN/RPO code before ordering.
