I Do Cars tore down a failed 70k miles 7.3 gasser. I watched the whole video, but if you don’t want to watch the whole thing, catch the last few minutes starting at 33:50. He’s also noticed a trend in V8 failures. Since he sells engines and parts, I would consider him a reliable source. It would be very interesting to have him on a live stream discussion. The video was posted on 9/13. I don’t know if I can link it here though.

I saw that video...the not-so Godzilla engine. They've been having these cam issues since 2020 or 2021 I think. It's all cost cutting garbage, they could built things to last, they choose not to.
