A question about plenum pans
I have a 2002 with the 3.9 in it. I am looking at tearing the top end down to replace a suspected collapsed/weak lifter and am researching whether or not to replace the plenum plate while i am in there.. The TSB includes all magnum motors up to the year 2000.
Did Dodge fix the plenum issues on post- 2000 vehicles? or is that when the TSB came out and Dodge just kept installing the faulty steel pans?

If I do replace it it would be a matter of preventative maintenance, It's not currently bad. But if I am in there already to fix a bad lifter, I would replace the pan as well..
I thought it was odd that the TSB stopped at the year 2000, and have seen some comments on other forums that the post 2000 magnums didn't have this issue.
I was just hoping someone could confirm or deny that.
