Hi there,
I just had lifter cam failure and the only cam I could source in my country was the charger -I'm not sure- 6.4 mds cam #5038419AB. So, I replace the original cam with this one and got the oem non mds lifters with it.
Also, I installed the hellcat oil pump and replaced timing chain + tensioner.
Mds solenoids were kept in place and disabled by hptuner.
The question here is, is it safe to use mentioned cam and lifter combination with solenoids left in place?
Do I have to get a custom tune or will the stock tune be fine?
Are there any problems that may arise in the future?
I was recently monitoring the engine through diablo trinity t1000 that I had previously and noticed some missfire on 1,4,6&7 cylinders، also knock retard at cruising speed 50-60mph.
Ps. I have been informed that I may lose some torque in the low end of RPM using this cam, but I'm not that concerned about it, the main concern is the overall reliability and longevity of the repair with said parts.
