Actually Mopar Performance has a fair amount of goodies for the 3.9l engine.
They have cams, a 4bbl intact manifold and headers. Any of the Cat back exhaust
upgrades available for the 5.2l would work just as well on the 3.9l.
The gentlemen with the 87 might want to look at the 4bbl manifold and a small
4bbl or maybe one of the after market fuel injection systems.
I need to replace my exhaust (likely this summer some time) I plan on getting a
2 1/4 inlet and outlet Dynomax muffler and having a 2 1/4 tailpipe bent for my
3.9l
