  I am a tech at a Dodge Dealership for 13 years now and the engne man, Have had one hemi with a broken valve spring but thats it. They just do not have many problems, and we sell LOTS of them. They are a better engine than the 5.2 and 5.9 Magnum by light years. And Man i should know.

Yeah, I worked at a dealership as a service adviser and it didn't seem like the hemis had many problems. I don't remember seeing any problems like that picture shows. Biggest complaint is noise from the injectors.
