Default Dead Cylinder!!!

I have a 05 Dodge with the 5.9.. The number 5 cylinder is dead, changed the injector and still not fixed.. B4 i changed the injector it smoked really bad blueish white smoke.. and had a hell of a miss you could hear in the exhaust.. The smoking is not as bad and the miss is almost gone.. Anyone have any other ideas? Hole in the piston?? Where can a guy get a good deal on parts?

Pull the head and see how bad it is first! Melted piston, Burnt valve, scored cylinder wall?!!

I agree pull the head off! It sounds like a hole in a piston or something along those lines. Unfortunately
