THEY FINALLY FIXED THE HEMI ISSUES?

I like venison AND spinach. I don't use mercurochrome anymore. I still have vacuum tube radios.

I'm kinda curious to see if you have a vacuum tube cell phone.

If he does, probably be as big as a breadbox or the original calculators that came out and were half the size of a backpack.

Of course, every TV news show, every newspaper post, heck the fliers that PPL annoy you with being shoved under your wiper at the local food store, roflmao.

I was the computer tech/system administrator on my ship's computer system in the Navy. It came out in 1968 and the mainframe and power supply took up almost a whole room by itself; the power supply was the size of a home outside AC compressor unit and the entire system had to have constant air conditioning to avoid burning out. My room and the captain's chambers were the only 2 regular AC rooms on the entire ship and we'd be floating around by South America in the summer with everyone stripped down to skivvies and I'd be walking around in my sea jacket and watch cap

According to Who..??

From NIH:
We assessed the risk of dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD), and vascular dementia (VaD), with subgroup analyses by gender, statin type, and diabetes status. Fifty‐five observational studies including over 7 million patients were analyzed. Statin use significantly reduced the risk of dementia compared to nonusers…

Statin use and dementia risk: A systematic review and updated meta‐analysis - PMC

Dementia affects 55 million people globally, with the number projected to triple by 2050. Statins, widely prescribed for cardiovascular benefits, may also have neuroprotective effects, although studies on their impact on dementia risk have shown ...

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

and (if you can believe AI) :
Observational studies:
Multiple observational studies have shown an inverse association between statin use and the risk of developing dementia. One large study found that people who took statins for at least 5 years had a 30% lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.

You are off topic. This is about the Hemi...........

Another thread hijacker. Why ????

Another thread hijacker. Why ????

Hell, half of every thread in every forum would be a hijack using your definition. We're all just in here bull****tin about stuff, including Rams. And a thread hijack isn't a veer off course, it's when someone parachutes into someone else's thread issue to try to get their own issues solved. In any case, when the mods or administrators feel like it's time they'll shut it down, until then the rest of us will just enjoy having a conversation with other truck aficionados.

Thing is, there should be value added to the question / for the OP and followers. Simple enough. There are are plenty of post pi$$ers.

 

[Curmudgeon]

Considering the vague nature of the OP by referencing a video with
no link or embedded video to discuss, and that the video was found
and posted, and discussed, and dismissed as bad information and all
done by about halfway down the first page, everything else has been
pretty much ancillary. Maybe related, maybe not.

I'll invoke a neato Jack Nicholson line...
"Sell crazy someplace else, we're stocked up here."

Nothing personal. After all, I am the resident azzhole.

If they admit they fixed a problem ( The HEMI Tick) I want them to reimburse for the new engine I paid a lot of $$$! out of my pocket!!!!! There should have been a class action on that.
The engine was not oiling the lifters, low oil pressure. I don't think they would admit anything.

 

[DanM]

I read that they incorporated the head into the exhaust manifold as one piece. But they didnt fix the engineering issue with the cam not getting enough oil which is why i wont get a hemi. watch the videos on the design and you will see the position of the lifters where there almost laying down in engine and not getting enough oil. My truck had 61000 exhaust manifold replaced, cam replaced and lifters. not worth the gamble.
