    Flowmaster 53553 50 Series Big Block

    on a half ton there are 2 little bullet type glass packs in the tail pipes right in front of the tips. i left those. to me it wasn't worth cutting up the tail pipes just to remove those little things. on my 14 2500 6.4 i have right now i've only removed the resonator because it looked awful...

    Flowmaster 53553 50 Series Big Block

    i used to have that same exact muffler on my 09 1/2 ton. if it is quieter than the regular delta flow 50 it wasn't by much. the truck sounded great but with pulling the travel trailer it had a drone. it is what it is i guess. there aren't hardly any options for a 3.5" muffler and all the...

    Hemi 6.4 Gas Engine Knock

    i've got a tick that sounds like exhaust hot or cold. (it's not exhaust) really embarrassing passing vehicles in town and the ****** sound echos off their vehicle when passing them. i've noticed under light throttle with the mds disabled it isn't as loud but soon as the mds kicks in it's...

    Typical 6.4 exhaust noise?

    i really don't think it's the exhaust anymore. i believe it's a mechanical issue like lifters that resonate through the exhaust. has anyone done a mds delete with the srt or performance aftermarket lifters and eliminated that nasty sound?

    Does the 6.4 have lifter issues like the 5.7??

    i used to work at an exhaust shop. we would cut off or break the remaining bolts, weld nuts to them, heat up the nub of a bolt and nut and turn them out slowly. if you work at it enough they usually came. crappy thing is the new parts that replace them aren't any better than the parts that...

    Does the 6.4 have lifter issues like the 5.7??

    my 2014 2500 6.4 has had the lifter noise for a while. sounds like a nasty exhaust leak under any kind of load and rpm. i've been told by 2 different dealerships that it's normal. after camping season is done in october i'll be looking for a 3 opinion. i'm getting tired of hearing it.

    Hitch receiver shank adaptor stuck

    i still use the e2 setup from my 1/2 ton on my current 3/4 ton. everything is the same except i went to the 2.5" shank and a different drop because i didn't like the idea of having a sloppy spot in the hitch setup. my 2.5" shank is made by equalizer.

    Typical 6.4 exhaust noise?

    i like the idea of the magnaflow kit but it is super expensive. i'd rather just swap the muffler. the pipe is already mandrel bent stainless.

    Typical 6.4 exhaust noise?

    No reserve.

    my 31 gallon tank usually takes 26ish if i run it to 1/8 remaining or so. never understood why they advertise on thing and it's not really true. my 09 1500 was the same way, i could never fill it to the advertised capacity. it's kinda like the bag of chips you buy that's only half full!
