One of my racing friends is considering buying a 99 Dodge 2500 V10 truck he's a Brand X racer but called me for advice on the truck. He said the truck is clean but has a slight valve type tap.It has 77,000 miles. Does anybody know much about or have one of these trucks? I don`t know much about them. What could the tap be, is the V10 a good engine , hard to work on etc.? Thanks

Been trying to sell my 2001 V10 5-speed for at least a year now with no takers. They are great engines but not great gas mileage obviously. It still gets better mileage than any of my friends 454 Chivvy's or any similar Ferd while towing.  There are a couple issues with intake and head gaskets though.
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

I have had them on there for over 15 years they are a Lund product, I`m not sure if they still make them or not.
