OEM Style Hellcat Non-MDS Lifters (SET)

The Genuine Mopar 05038784AD Hellcat Non-MDS Hydraulic Roller Lifter Set with Tray is the OEM choice for enthusiasts and engine builders looking to improve the reliability and durability of their Gen 3 HEMI engine. Originally engineered for the supercharged Hellcat platform, these heavy-duty hydraulic roller lifters feature tighter manufacturing tolerances and a more robust internal design than earlier HEMI lifters, making them an excellent solution for high-performance street cars, race builds, camshaft upgrades, and complete engine rebuilds. Whether you’re replacing worn factory lifters or performing a complete MDS delete, these genuine Mopar lifters provide the dependable performance expected from factory-engineered components.

Designed as a direct replacement for 5.7L, 6.1L, 6.2L Hellcat, and 6.4L (392) Gen 3 HEMI engines, the Mopar 05038784AD lifter set has become the industry standard for builders who demand OEM quality without compromise. These non-MDS lifters are commonly installed during camshaft swaps because they eliminate the factory MDS lifters, which are not intended for aggressive cam profiles or increased valve spring pressures. Their proven reliability in factory Hellcat applications makes them an excellent choice for naturally aspirated and forced-induction combinations alike. When used as part of an MDS delete, they help create a stronger, more consistent valvetrain capable of supporting demanding driving conditions and higher RPM operation.

Each kit includes one lifter tray containing four hydraulic roller lifters. Since every Gen 3 HEMI V8 uses a total of sixteen lifters, a quantity of four kits is required for a complete engine. This makes the product ideal for engine refreshes, complete rebuilds, performance upgrades, or replacing damaged factory lifters during maintenance. Installation should always be performed following factory service procedures, and MDS-equipped vehicles converting to these non-MDS lifters will require the proper supporting components—including an MDS-delete camshaft, block-off plugs, and ECU calibration—to ensure proper engine operation.

Choosing genuine Mopar components means you’re installing the same OEM-quality parts trusted in factory high-horsepower applications. Unlike many aftermarket alternatives, these Hellcat lifters were designed to withstand the demands of supercharged performance while maintaining excellent oil control, smooth operation, and long-term durability. Whether you’re building a reliable daily driver, preparing a weekend track car, or assembling a serious horsepower build, the Mopar 05038784AD Non-MDS Lifter Set delivers the quality, fitment, and peace of mind that Gen 3 HEMI owners expect. With OEM engineering, proven compatibility, and dependable performance, these lifters remain one of the most recommended upgrades for anyone servicing or modifying a Gen 3 HEMI valvetrain.
