Durango 392 AlcHEMI

Glad I have enough of the wonderful, peaceful, cooperative and balanced Sicilian blood left over from cus’ Vito (with 20% North African bro blood, and don’t give a shit middle eastern into her 80% Italian) mixed in with the pure Italian (Dad was one of the original 100% off the boat) from the other side to sit over in the right seat and let her drive all she wants. Just cannot get her to drive the Redeye for some reason. She will blast the Durango around so she does not have to watch and hear me drive it.

I was proud of myself the other day. Driving alone I got some lib closer to New Somalia to nail me with a long honk and a friendly signal I saw in my rear view mirror. I do not give them bastards in Hennepin County a fuckin inch when I need to drive over there.

Seen this?

The lifter/cam issue is mostly caused by excessive idle time, as it largely relies on splash lubrication. A fix most guys do on the 5.7 and 6.4 is to delete the MDS stupidity and install Hellcat lifters. Can't recall the difference in the lifters but seems like the Hellcat version was better for oiling. A friend of mine had a few lobes on the cam go flat and got a new 392 in her Challenger under warranty. Not really a fix though, as all the new engine did was reset the clock on the cam time bomb.

The key 🔑 is the higher Volume oil pump ! As well as hardened/better lobes and No MDS ever on DDHC. That's why I spent ~$30K more than I needed to

My warranty just expired. Going to be taking the PCM oiut for an unlock and calling a good friend for a whole lot less than $30k and get it set-up to fix that crap. Only thing that bothers me is I can feel it vibrate in four cylinder mode. Cannot be good for it so it needs to stop without me pressing a button or two to get to a Custom, or Sport mode etc.

I never drove my Scat Pack out of sport mode due to keeping it out of 4-cyl mode.

BTW that movie clip was not mean to offend, I always thought it was such an awesome scene with 2 legends and shows how badass Italian people are. I have no idea if any of that is true.
