    Lifter question

    I am curious if anyone knows how much preload there is on the MDS lifters

    Lifter question

    I agree that the quality of Fel Pro is good. The Fel Pro head gasket is approximately .013" thicker than the OEM Mopar (at least I believe this to be correct). I have read a lot of post about longer pushrods eliminating the ticking

    Lifter question

    It was some shit like GELUOXI from Amazon. Not sure, but I've put almost 16,000 miles on them and the same hot idle tick. No performance loss, just tick, tick, tick. Redline has definitely helped.

    Lifter question

    I have 5.7 Hemi. If I could turn back time I would use Mopar OEM cam, lifter, and head gasket. I unfortunately used mopar cam, with aftermarket MDS lifters, and Fel Pro head gasket. I have a fairly loud ticking when the engine warms up. Not sure if its cheap lifters or the MLS head gasket being...

    Did Redline Oil work against your Hemi Tick?

    Burla, just a little update. My 190,000 mile 2012 Ram 1500 W/5.7 litre Hemi definitely likes the Redline 5W-30 better than I originally thought. I changed my oil with the Redline at a little over 12,000 miles and decided to try the PP and added MOS2. I was really hoping for some great results...

    Did Redline Oil work against your Hemi Tick?

    Burla If there was a tick before, I didn't hear it. I'm kinda OCD, so when I hear something, I'm like WTH? The truck has almost 183,000 on it and I definitely don't baby it or treat it like grandpa. I have not tried holding it at 3000 RPMs for 3 minutes. I will give it a shot. I do not have 1/2...

    Did Redline Oil work against your Hemi Tick?

    A couple months ago I had a roller bearing go out on a lifter and wipe out a lobe on my camshaft on my 2012 Ram 1500 with 5.7 Hemi. I changed my camshaft (used Mopar) and lifters (used aftermarket) out the first of August 2020. FU 2020!! It is quiet as a jaybird when cold, but ticks loudly when...

    Did Lubegard Biotech kill your hemi tick??

    I will check out your oil filter thread. I appreciate the research and your advise. I actually purchased a RP filter last night. It should be in Sunday. I will post results once I feel satisfied one way or the other!

    Burla, Not sure WTH I am doing trying to reply to your post. LOL I have purchased a couple gallons of Redline 5W-30 after reading your earlier post. I have a Mopar filter, but you think I should get a RP or Amsoil?

    Did Lubegard Biotech kill your hemi tick??

    Thanks Burla. I am going to give it a try. I have 2012 Ram 1500 Sport with the 5.7 Hemi. I am also getting ready to do an oil change with Redline. I had a roller bearing go out on a lifter a few months ago, at about 170,000 miles. (5800 hours) It also wiped out the lobe on the camshaft. I...
