Bravo on rebuilding it! With all the electrical crap on cars nowadays you can't just take an engine apart like you can on older engines that were mostly mechanical work
And what's the point of making the 4.7? I'd just stick with the hemi or penstar v6.

The Pentastar is becoming a nightmare - the valve seats aren't dropping so much as they are seizing to the valve. Dealer's lots are filling up with vehicles awaiting repair for this...

Wow Hammer!
Nice job on rebuilding it. my truck is my daily driver so I would be SOL!
I have never had an over heated engine so I will add this to the 'dodge prayer list'
Thanks for the post!
