You guys totally missed my point.
Personally I would like a lesson on the "proper" way to drive a high performance vehicle.
You guys totally missed my point.
Oh yeah, as a percentage of ownership, I bet more truck owners have to work (I mean real work, not deciding to do real carbon fiber or wrapping their dash bezels ) on their own vehicles on a budget compared to viper owners going to the dealership for a $1800 change of coils and wires
seeing some of the things done to srt's... there is no short supply of idiots...
Are you saying I called you an Idiot? When?Of course we did, we're the idiots
Please tell me whos these idiots.
We'll start with the guys who notch frame rails, argue with dan lesser on the posts hes made and ease in to the cutters of factory harnesses and bypassers of switches....but hack away, make mine more rare...
And I think the point that was made about viper owners has nothing to do with working on your own ride, it has to do with not seeing viper guys do (or pay a guy to do) the above mentioned stupid shit...
Oh and if your welds don't like a roll of dimes, they have no business on a SRT...

weak rod bolts stretching, allowing the piston to travel to far at high rpm, next step is kablooey
not starting a rumor, the ones in that truck could be sub standard, manufacturering tolerances out of whack. just because 10,000 sets work right doesn't mean 1 set can't fail.
either something (rod bolt, rod, piston pin) is allowing the piston to go too far into the combustion chamber OR the spark plug is too long (previous set and new set) or someone tried silicone for head gasket or super thin one (which i don't see accounting for that movement)
you really thin detonation caused the strap to be bent one ALL the pistons without really eating up the rest of the spark plug?? could be i guess
Someone drop it on the floor before installing it? Doesn't look like the piston hit it but you never know. Is compression good on that cylinder?
Carbon buildup on the piston top? How many miles? You might have to shim them so they get more clearance.
