You shouldn't change your mind about the Rumble Bee. Here's the deal. The valve problem is isolated it seems. There are many people out there that aren't having any problems what-so-ever with the Hemi. I have spoke/conversed with several techs and only one said they had heard of an isolated incident. Personally, I know of 3 different people who have the 2500 ram with the Hemi and tow heavy car trailers or work trailers with them. Absolutely no problem at all. I think it's possible that there has been some degree of over-reaction to the ticking noise and confusion relating to the valve spring failure. You won't hear a valve spring until after it breaks.
I do agree that it's important to note that someone has had this problem, but until it's apparent that it's more than just an isolated incident it's not worth the worry.

thats very true, i appriceate your quick responce to my thread. I will be doing a little more research into this before making my decision and purchase. ive read alot of other forums and it seems there are quite a few people who have broken valves. or their trucks are stalling while driving with for me is a no go if thats going to be a regular occuring event. but you are right im sure myself as well as others are over reacting and this is probably a 1 out of 100 type of situation
