My friend rebuilt the top end of one of those 5.7 liter Hemi's (only had around 40,000 miles) after it puked a valve spring. Here's the pushrod for that valve:

Not a bad deal, Bro. I got my 5.7 Hemi motor and trans and all the electrics with 5,000 miles on it. I swapped one of my vintage dirt bikes for it. The motor had 5,000 miles on it. The Grand Cherokee it came out of had the back end torched by some punk kids as a prank. Great kids...huh??

Maybe your initial post should have listed the pics, then said "for those who don't know" then stated what I quoted above. Would have saved the post saying "huh?"

Brochacho, do recall that you're posting to a large audience so it certainly makes sense why we were confused you posted pics of a lame looking silver egg.

If I were the adjuster I would deny the claim. No reason we should have more Chryslers on the road =)
