The safest way is just to leave the two rows attached and don't touch the motor. Disconnecting the motor is completely unnecessary.

Well you shouldn't mess with the motor. Just keep the top and bottom rows of shutters and delete the others, that's all you have to do. The two rows are there to keep stability to that system (so that it doesn't physically collapse), and the motor being attached thinks its still doing whatever...

I noticed a large improvement going from 20 inch michelin defender back to stock 18 inch goodyear wrangler. Maybe it is part tire compound, maybe part wheel size, but it was almost night and day. Of course the good years are as streetable as streetable can get, nothing aggressive or even close...

Earlier hemis apparently did, but the 2019+ (and probably earlier) don't. I've run Mobil 1 0w-40 in my truck and no codes were set.

No, I'm ignoring you because you're not arguing the facts you're trying to make things personal.

Again, not reading the rest of your post. Argue the facts.

They've had their share of issues no doubt. But they get some winners too, there are a few "million mile" tundra's out there now and those v8s are quite a nice step up above the hemi when it comes to reliability and engine life. They also use stronger rear axles in their Tundra's. Most of...

That's what folks say when posts get personal and you just say whatever pops into your head.

The analog needle is kinda useless, it's more of a dummy gauge. You should be able to adjust your dash to get a digital readout of your water/oil/transmission temps which rise and fall with every degree change. The dummy gauge more or less sits there and doesn't update unless it's really cold or...

I stopped reading your BS right there. Not going to read the read the rest of what you wrote.

VRP cleans very well, that is not up for debate, the pictures prove that. But I suspect it's a one trick pony. HPL has the cleaning aspect covered (it cleans so well they have a dedicated "cleaner" product which cleans slower than their actual oil because their oil can clean too much too fast...

Once a year is more than fine with that mileage on HPL's oils. Guys on bitog are doing 24k mile intervals over like 2+ years IIRC. I haven't seen that tried with Redline other oils, I doubt they'd stand up like that. I don't know where you live, the 5w-30 might not be the best choice in...

HPL's basic PCMO is probably cheaper/quart than Redline at this point. They do have more expensive oils, their "super car" is quite pricey but PCMO is still better than anything else and is all we need (it even carries the "meets or exceeds MS6395" label if you like that kind of thing) You can...

Just another reason to go with HPL; their oils stay in grade and do not shear down. This is backed up many UOA's, including my own. They use very high quality polymers, or none at all in the case of their NO-VII line.

No. HPL has proven success, no religion required. The reality is, many people are experience lifter failures. We don't have proof of why, but we do have at least one engineers/machinist expert analysis which said (paraphrasing): "there was sufficient oil, but the oil failed to meet the...

GM (and Ford for that matter in the past) has proven that viscosity plays an even more important roll once material starts to degrade. This isn't about "fixing the issue", its about keeping your engine running as long as possible. Hemi cams and lifters degrade as well, speculation on what goes...

Since installing it, I can sleep in piece knowing the buttons on my steering wheel will live to serve another day, I don't they they were engineered to survive the frustration of an MDS hating owner.

If you're towing, I'd definitely be running 5w-30. Redline is popular, personally I'm running HPL as its a better oil. The 6.2 recall is due in part to rough surface finishes, the rougher the surface the higher viscosity you need to get that film. But we can apply this same reasoning to our...

Before you do all that: 1) remove your active grill shutters (all but the top and bottom 2 rows; this keeps the structure intact, but guts the inside so that air is constantly flowing over your engine) 2) install a 180F thermostat. your water temps will drop and stay much cooler, and your oil...

They already have a supercharger on it making north of 1000 HP.
