Third generation Hemi has a design fault for lubrication of the cam lobes and lifter rollers, per a seasoned mechanic. The cam materials have been tested and are not soft. Insufficient oil slinging from the crank shedding lube oil and/or droplets from the head assembly after a redesign, changed relative positioning of the components. The cam faces run dry at extended idle or low engine speed operation.
