Hyundai / Kia G4NB 1.8L Cylinder Head Assembly – Valves & Camshafts Pre-Installed
This G4NB cylinder head assembly is a brand new, factory-fresh cylinder head built to OEM standards. It comes with the complete valvetrain pre-installed, including intake and exhaust valves, valve springs, camshafts, hydraulic lifters and all related internal components. You simply transfer your existing external parts – saving significant time and labour during installation.
The G4NB is a 1.8-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine from the Hyundai/Kia Nu engine family, produced from 2010 to 2016. It features a lightweight aluminium cylinder block and head, a DOHC 16-valve valvetrain with Dual CVVT (continuously variable valve timing on both intake and exhaust camshafts), a maintenance-free timing chain with hydraulic tensioner, and multi-point fuel injection (MPI). The engine uses a variable intake system (VIS) and delivers 148–150 hp (110 kW) and 178 Nm of torque[reference:0][reference:1]. This cylinder head is manufactured to exact original tolerances and pressure-tested for reliable, long-lasting performance.
