The 3 chain engine uses a completely different lifter carrier than the 5 chain, along with all other components of the head being altered as well. None of the parts are interchangeable.

This is why 03 and 04 models eat lifters and cams, usually bank 1, cylinder 1, outer intake valve.
So how does one prevent this from happening?
