- If it is fixed, simply show me the new parts and tell me why they are better and also the old parts and explain why they failed.

I would wonder if they ever fixed the camshaft and lifter problems in the hemi engines. Until that is definitely fixed, I wouldn't touch one with a $111,000 pole.
Fixed in 2016 engines.
They did?
Here's a video from Mr Mopar himself on the topic. Link
It's fixed. But now they go through more oil between changes than an OPEC exec combs through their hair before a CARB board meeting. :B
Haven`t seen one that uses oil. Even the infamous Hemi lifter issue isn`t that much of an issue. I have a 300C with the 5.7 and 75k miles. no problems.
I'm just giving a the Dodge guys a hard time. But the Hemi's we are testing running hard do consume oil. But not at a higher rate than other performance engines at similar abuse levels.mich800 wrote:

Fixed in 2016 engines.- I would wonder if they ever fixed the camshaft and lifter problems in the hemi engines. Until that is definitely fixed, I wouldn't touch one with a $111,000 pole.
