Does the V10 have solid lifters?

Does the V10 have a solid lifter setup? I have a 2000 RT/10 with 10,000 miles and the lifters are pretty loud when the oil heats up.

Loud yes, solid no

You may be hearing the fuel injectors rather than the lifters. On mine the fuel injectors can be quite loud. But, open up the exhaust and you may never hear them again.

They are hydraulic roller lifters

None are factory solid. 2000 was the first year of the high-leakdown (high-squish) lifters that softened valvetrain noise some.
