-1) got the Ram boxes, huh?
0) IMO, that's not injectors, exhaust bolts, or a hemi tick; I agree that's something else
1) Personally, if I had any engine issues, I would just dump and refill. Unethical? maybe, but the oil weight is for CAFE standards. We have videos of the engineers talking about how these beasts were tested/built on 30 weights...
2) I think most folks here run the
XL Royal Purple filter
3) the first number is the for the cold, the second is operating temp. Think W = winter.
5w by text book is good down to -35F. By comparison, 0w is -40F. I think you'll be alright.
4) You could contact @
Nick@GotExhaust and see if he would ship to you? (

I would never buy a hemi again. I don't know what options are out there, it may be buy a 1990's windsor and rebuild it.
Ford finally confirmed that 7.3 monster. I like my Ram, but unless they have issues with it, that pushrod beast will be my next engine.
IMO, the detergents are underrated in these conversations, because all the 'big names' around here all have stealer formulas. I want a clean engine with lots of molly. Even though there's not a lot of molly, those PUP UOA show great wear reports everytime. Clean engine = more lubrication = less wear.
I'm not familiar with the QSUD enough to pick it up over PUP. But PUP with lubegard, is a no brainer to me. At $4/qt, if money was an issue, I'd pick QSUD up tomorrow... Personally, I'm not skimming out on a couple bucks, to maintain a $35,000+ asset lol
