Description

EC Cylinder Head Dowel Pins – 10mm x 14mm for GX200, Clone, Predator, and Tillotson Engines


These high-quality head dowel pins are designed as OEM replacements for many Honda GX200-style engines and their clones, including Predator, Tillotson, Wildcat, Ducar, and Ghost variants. Head dowels help align the cylinder head to the engine block, ensuring proper seal and structural stability under high performance and compression.


Each dowel measures 10mm x 14mm and is constructed from durable steel for long-lasting performance. While most engines require two head dowels, we recommend checking your engine head before ordering to ensure proper fitment.


Note: These head dowels are not interchangeable with the dowels used on the crankcase and side cover.


Specifications:

  • Dowel Size: 10mm (diameter) x 14mm (length)
  • Material: Steel
  • Quantity Required: Typically 2 (check your head to confirm)


Engine Compatibility:

  • Honda GX200 / 196cc Clone Engines
  • Tillotson 196cc – 268cc Engines
  • Wildcat 223 / 240
  • Ducar 196 / 212 / 224
  • Predator 212 Hemi
  • Predator 224 Non-Hemi
  • Ghost 212

Important Fitment Note:
Predator 212 Non-Hemi engines use 12mm dowel pins instead of 10mm. Always verify your stock dowel pin size or measure the dowel holes before ordering.

FAQ

Q1: How many dowel pins does my engine head require?

Most Honda GX200 and clone-style engines require 2 dowel pins for proper cylinder head alignment. However, always check your head and block before ordering to confirm the number needed.


Q2: Are these dowels the same as the side cover dowels?

No. These 10mm x 14mm dowel pins are specific to the cylinder head. Side cover and crankcase dowels are typically different in size and design.


Q3: Will these fit my Predator 212 Non-Hemi engine?

Not likely. The Predator 212 Non-Hemi typically uses 12mm head dowels. Please verify your existing dowel size before ordering.


Q4: What material are the dowels made of?

These head dowels are constructed from hardened steel for strength, durability, and resistance to wear and distortion under high compression.


Q5: Why are head dowels important in high-performance engines?

Head dowels ensure the precise alignment of the cylinder head to the block, which helps prevent gasket failure, blow-by, and head warping under extreme operating conditions.
