does anyone have any info on the motors in the newer dodge trucks having oil starvation problems? my buddy has one with a 318 and it locked up today. he said he's heard they've been having problems with them, it has 40,000 miles, he thinks the warranty won't help him. and also thing about replacing with a 360. thanks in advance. worley

the only think i have heard is about the belly pan gasket going out, and within 300 miles to be out of oil in the engine, but that is about all i have heard.
