    Replacement Muffler

    Guess I should update my info. Moved to Wisconsin awhile ago. It would likely be cheaper to buy from a dealer than ship from Alaska

    Replacement Muffler

    Agreed on the mild aftermarket upgrade. Donno how much shipping would be, but I literally just finished using my stock muffler & manifolds to help flatten some plywood. Other than using as weights, they're useless to me

    5.7 & 6.4 Valve Springs

    Damn, guess I'll stop complaining about our prices. Might even drive the truck more & say "could be worse".

    2014 Ram 1500 4x4 Rear Differential Hell

    The older axles have the shim between pinion head & big bearing. The newer ones have the shim between the big bearing race & diff housing. I believe they switched with the change over to the ZF axle.

    8HP70 to 8HP90 swap - Useful info for the next guy.

    Those ratings would work for the majority of us here. Do the srt/hellcat valve bodies work in the trucks & not throw config codes? Is the valve body required for launch control when adding srt pages?

    8HP70 to 8HP90 swap - Useful info for the next guy.

    I believe I remember reading on wiki that the 8hp trans are only offered in 2 case designs (rwd & 4wd). At least during the DS/WK/LC/LA lifespan, may change with new chassis designs like WL. My theory is that a 8hp90 from a trackhawk or hellcat durango should be a direct bolt in cause those are...

    Adding Suspension Airline Dryer

    Do you know what p/n version your compressor is? AK or newer?

    Adding Suspension Airline Dryer

    This is genius. Keep us updated if you make through a few cold snaps with no issues

    Flashing cel under hard acceleration

    Pull the valve cover & see if pushrods are loose or bent. If loose, lifter or cam likely wiped out.

    P000B after new lifters and cam

    A little FYI, if you actuate it multiple times & it sounds a bit different each time; it may not actually be bad. Ask me how I know.....

    Intake manifold tip

    Torque spec is 9 ft lbs. I checked mine a few times last year & they were always loose. Ended up finding the manifold gaskets had gotten folded over during a previous repair & causing an oil leak

    I did a bit of reading on this a few years ago,but boy does it make for a complicated and busy camshaft

    I think it was Mazda that had a prototype engine a few years ago that could run on gas & diesel, auto switch between the two just like a E85 setup. Haven't heard anything on it since it was shown (don't remember if running). Can't remember if it was SEMA or one of the big auto shows. To me, it...

    I did a bit of reading on this a few years ago,but boy does it make for a complicated and busy camshaft

    This is why I want to see combustion engines live on & be further developed. There's so much untapped potential out there for efficiency & emissions to be improved upon. Unfortunately, as it seems right now, EPA & CAFE are gonna win and eventually imposing fines (my guess) on combustion engines...

    Anyone have lifter issues after cam and Hellcat lifters?

    I bet. Dragging my balls across a field of broken glass sounds more fun than that. I used Mopar gaskets with my Kooks cause of the included heat shields. Took some persuasion for the shield to bend in place. Seems OK to me. I should probably check though...

    Phase lock

    I would go with what your cam manufacturer says to use. If they say a limiter is required, do it. If they say a lockout kit is required do it. I would not deviate from what they say. Spending the $500 (or however much a kit is) is well worth it. That's better than buying pistons & valves, or...
