So what cam, heads, milled how much if any... did you end up putting in?
As for the lifter, I'm guessing bean counters had something to do with the lifters falling apart, I never seen a 6.1 or 08 back 5.7 do it, something changed in 09+.
I did exactly what you said. Had to grab another new head (drivers side eagle), 6.4 srt cam and springs ,new lifters and took 20 thousandths off. I used all ARP hardware for the hell of it.
Any idea what the compression is after taking 20 off the heads?
I wanted to have the bad head cut apart to see what the heck happened but there was a $150 core charge so I sent it back.
It amazed me how easy this engine was to work on. Almost makes me want to put one in my Challenger.
