The spark plug towers are the same height for all, however the Eagle/Apache have taller valves so the rockershafts sit higher thus the "camel humps" in those valve covers. Edit: Also the 03-05 5.7 used the waste spark system requiring cross over spark plug wires vs the 06 and newer using coil over plugs like the 6.1. Last edited by hemidup; 02/19/15 12:46 AM.
