# 3801916 Cylinder Head Reman | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured cylinder head from the Engine group, weighing 78.02 kg and listed for 18 applications in the D series. It supersedes part number 3801869. It is the widest-fitting remanufactured head here, and its weight puts it just above the 73 kg pair 3801887 and 3801888. This unit is supplied on an exchange basis: core deposit 3804916 is charged alongside it and refunded once the old unit is returned, so both numbers appear on the order.
