    How-To: 4th gen hemi cam installation

    Just a couple of issues I found with the instructions. They are amazing BTW! 1. The link in this section is no longer good. With the phaser complete you can start reassembling the timing set. The timing chain has 2 sets of markings, one link has a line on it, and the other end has 2 marked...

    How-To: 4th gen hemi cam installation

    I copied and pasted this from another site that is keeping track of the number of Hemi cam / lifter failures. Year 2011 looks like the worst year. I hope it is okay to do this. Another periodic update; this includes trucks whose owners said it was a confirmed cam/lifter failure, and does...

    How-To: 4th gen hemi cam installation

    I am leaving the engine completely stock, I need a reliable daily driver and quite frankly the Hemi is plenty of power for playing around also. My ram boxes are full of work tools and junk so I carry 100+ pounds anyway. My question is using a tuner to turn the MDS off. What are the...

    How-To: 4th gen hemi cam installation

    At 150,000 miles do I need to replace the springs and push rods? I just want stock as this is my daily driver work truck. Also, a Dodge tech told me you don't have to replace the head bolts. That doesn't make sense to me since they are "torque to yield"

    How Many Miles Since Cam Replacement?

    We are all well aware of the problems with the 2011 lifter issues eating cams. I'm a little concerned about metal from the cam having floated around inside the engine for 10,000 - 20,000 miles being embedded into the bearings. Having cut open filters I have found a lot of metal in mine and...

    Weird Symptoms During Load

    I have a 2011 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi with 150,000 miles. Im pretty sure I have a bad lifter and its eating the cam, but I'm getting weird symptoms that make no sense and I need some expert advice. 1. The tire pressure light comes on for 3-5 seconds right after starting up a hill with the cruise on...
