Hey fellas,
So earlier this year picked up a 06 1500 with a 5.7 hemi. Head gasket blew and mixed fluids. I attempted to repair head gasket and had the heads machined. The heads were warped so that became a fun task. Got them machined down and reinstalled them. Motor came back to life but had random misfires. Went through the rigmarole and still had the same issue. Went to swap out fluids and saw that my fluids were again mixing. After further digging my block is cracked. So rather than just junking the whole vehicle i dedcided to look into a stroker kit. So all input, links, advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chuck
