Review on πŸ’ͺ Banks Big Head Actuator Kit - Model 24396 for Enhanced Performance and Durability by Glenn Cho

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It sure doesn't spin.

Good product but not quite "bolted together". I have a 2003 6.6 liter Duramax LB7 and the new bolted bracket positioned the actuator about 1/2" to the right so I had to drill additional holes in the bracket to try to move the block 1/2" to move to the left. . The stem angle wasn't perfect either, so I had to bend it 3 degrees before it lined up with the wastegate control lever. However, the bracket was not large enough to drill two holes, so the device is now held in place with just one (1) fastener. But now it fits perfectly and works as intended. Drilling new holes has also removed the cadmium plating so it will eventually rust. Overall I'm happy with the purchase but would like the new bracket to position the drive where it should be.

Pros
  • Manifold and parts
Cons
  • Only available in black
