Detailed Description

Part number V3006 is an engine exhaust valve engineered for Ram 2500, Ram 3500, Ram 4500, and Ram 5500 applications, as well as Dodge Ram 2500, Dodge Ram 3500, Dodge Ram 4500, and Dodge Ram 5500 applications listed in the fitment data. The stainless steel valve body, coated finish, and high-fatigue-strength design support dependable exhaust flow control and sealing under elevated combustion temperatures. Melling positions this valve line for OEM-style and performance-oriented engine applications, and V3006 follows that approach with dimensions and geometry suited to stock replacement service.

This part cross-references DNJ (e.g., EV1165) for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring exhaust valve sealing when the original valve is worn or heat-damaged
• Addressing compression loss caused by poor valve seating
• Replacing a bent, burned, or fatigued exhaust valve during engine service
• Correcting valve train issues related to stem wear or surface deterioration

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify valve head diameter, stem diameter, seat angle, and overall length before assembly. This exhaust valve is listed for stock applications, so confirm cylinder head and valve train specifications against the engine build before installation. Professional cylinder head service practices should be followed during inspection, machining, and final assembly.
