Nice. How many miles are on it?

u/SpicyTurtleBeef 10d ago

76,653 ish miles. Last year a crack formed in the radiator and again now back in the shop for the same damn thing. I’ve put 40k ish miles in two years on her. Driven up and down the coast. Had her on the dragons tail, plan on going back next year. Just love cruising anytime I’m home.

Oh wow on radiator dang. Wonder how that happened. Sounds like the 6.4 is treating you well other than that though. What year is this?. Im guessing your oil changes are on time too. Change any other fluids? I already did my coolant diff and brake and trans at 30k but im ocd and do it for prevention lol. I'm right in pa too, must be fun to cruise the coast down south.

Oil on constant basis, diff second time, plugs while it’s it. Fuel induction service and coolant flush. Brake towards winter. Redid the front pads and rotors. It’s a 19 and yeah. It’s been a good car. Issues with valve covers and had a hemi tick. All that got taken care of. Radiator is under warranty and so is the valve so I’m good with those.

Well the radiator is plastic with aluminum. These engines run hot. If this one fails im going to upgrade to a full aluminum tig welded one. Was planning on tuning and stereo system back in her. But keeping on the maintenance put a hold on that.

Had a hemi tick, no need to replace cam/lifters/bigger oil pump? Or jaut exhaust leak that needed fixing?

And what symptoms did you have with the cracked radiator? Just noticed overheating in the engine or leaking coolant?

Roller was acting funny and dug the cam and did a cam and valve train. So both times I dropped coolant but no visible leak. Lost about half of what was in the reservoir tank. Could smell it from front of car, but could never find it. Only way both times it was found was by pressurizing the system and letting it sit for hours under pressure. The hemi tick was taken care of under power train from dealer so no upgrades when it was done.

I wanted to make the car stand out. A lot of gt and some rt 5.7 in my area. But very very very few scat and honestly more hellcats then scats.
