    Lifter failure again… how to bulletproof?

    I have a 2014 Ram 1500 that had lifter failure at 220k. When this happened, I was able to get a parts truck with 70k and swap the motors. After putting 3,500 miles on it, this engine also has lifter failure. I don't want to deal with this lifter failure again. I've been doing research for...

    So I have a tap/tick after camshaft and all lifters replacement along with a new oil pump “+10 psi above stock. And timing chain. But this tick only occurs when the oil temp is 180-200 degrees.

    MDS Pulse when going 4 back to 8

    The MDS system in my '14 1500 5.7 seems to be "fluctuating" when it shifts back to 8 mode from 4 mode. I can feel it in my pants and hear it. I confirmed this by shutting MDS off by using the gear selector on the steering wheel and the issue went away. I have AlfaOBD so I can do some in-depth...

    So I have a 2013 ram 1500 5.7 hemi, I replaced the manifold which was ticking and then there was another tick so I brought it to the dealer and they said it was an internal engine noise, a piston slap. Said the pistons are slapping up to the cylinder walls. I figured bringing it in there that it...

    Lifter tick after cam and lifter replacement

    I've got a 2010 ram 1500 with the 5.7 Hemi. I had a lifter failure that destroyed one of the lobes on my camshaft and caused a misfire on cylinder 5. I have replaced the camshaft, lifters, oil pump, had the heads refreshed, and verified that none of the push rods were bent. That fixed the...
