Head gasket leaking

Something to ponder, but the camshafts in these 5.7/6.4 Hemi engines are not billet core, they are cast iron and have delamination problems with induction hardening eventually causing lifter failure.

If you're digging heads off at 60k miles, my suggestion would be to inspect all lifters and have a camshaft ready if there is evidence of delamination on the rollers. I'll be making a video shortly explaining since this has become rampant online and misinformation is causing repeat labor.
