    SNOW PICS

    The snow is only sticking to objects above ground and melting on the ground so that's positive. The negative part is we won't be BBQ-ing today.. it's to yukky out.

    6.4l terrible mpg

    the MDS on the 6.4 2500 barely works due to power to weight ratio, I noticed this going from a 1500 5.7 MDS to a 2500 MDS. For me I noticed that 4 cyl. mode worked between 70-90 Km range not saying it didn't in other ranges but it is noticeable at that speed. I have the 410 gears so that might...

    swap my 66RFE for a G56....cost?

    There is different gear options for the G56 ... I want the 6.29 first gear and the 6.29 reverse gear which the thinking with the 4.10 gears and 35" tires is going to work just fine but that will be a future topic to address

    6.4L Cam Experiences / Testimonials

    That's awesome advice @Wild one , good thing to know about the oil pumps. Sounds right about getting on the phone as I do have all that information you mentioned, just not financial ready to make that call yet. So studying and reading what others do is it. It is on the list but tranny first.

    6.4L Cam Experiences / Testimonials

    I know this post is a bit old but want to chime in... I have been doing a lot of research on this topic and I'm still undecided on what cam to get... but when this happens I will change the lifters with MDS plugs and also the oil pump will be changed too. Flyin Ryan has a cam I'm interested in...

    swap my 66RFE for a G56....cost?

    I will have an update soon, just waiting for some more bits of information on the reprogramming of the ECU. The G56 is in place and the rework of the transfer case is being worked on.
