REMOVE the bullydog settings from your truck and put the stock settings back before you take it to the dealer for a warranty issue. Whether they cover it via a warranty or not depends on the warranty your truck has. To the best of my knowledge headers is not going to negate your warranty.

They will try to use it as an excuse but dont let them. They tried blaming my tires for the noise my exhaust manifold was making when it broke 4 of the bolts.

definitely take off the setting, i believe if you look in the manual most rams (at least mine) say that external aftermarket parts will not void the warranty, as long as its only added to their parts. This means pretty much everything goes. Dodge sucks to deal with, i've had to several times here with my truck constantly messing up, best shot is to find a motor online (might as well get a kick *** crate) and do a swap. i doubt dodge wil be much help and they run the $$$$$ up the wall on everything

How did you blow your engine? Did you raise the rev limiter too high with your programmer?

that blows ***.

that hole in your block (if i think it's what it is) is supposed to do what it did. piston froze up, and instead of letting compression explode through your engine and ****, it blows out a cap in the block.

^^ in this photo, you see that silver/gray plug above the block drain? is the hole that blew out...like a gaping hole? or is a perfect circle?
