Complete conversion kit (16 Hellcat hydraulic tappets) for mechanical removal of the MDS function on 5.7 Hemi and 6.4 SRT engines and as a replacement for engine repairs.
Replacing the hydraulic tappets is strongly recommended for camshaft conversions and as part of engine repairs.
To prevent the check engine light from coming on, it may be necessary to adapt the software of the engine control unit.
We can also carry out this programming. Please contact us for this.
To remove the MDS actuators that are no longer required, you also need 4 MDS blanking plug.
In our experience, the service life of the hydraulic tappets is around 120,000 km. If you are carrying out work on the engine and are approaching this mileage, we strongly recommend installing a new set of tappets while the engine is disassembled. The cylinder heads must be removed to replace the tappets.

I can highly recommend Kraftwerk. I did an all-round job and replaced all the wear parts for my Trackhawk + a small performance upgrade. The advice was top, delivery time as stated. I'm looking forward to the next upgrade.
