Hey Johnathan,

You should get a Mopar Performance catalog from someone. There are three
cams for your motor: P4452806 (.405 lift intake and exhaust, 240 duration
intake and exhaust), P4452808 (Lift - .410 intake/.425 exhaust, Duration -
248 intake/256 exhaust), and P4452810 (Lift - .430 intake/.450 exhaust,
Duration - 260 intake/268 exhaust). In the catalog, none of the Durations
listed are at .050 of lift, they are advertised durations. Anyhow, if I
were going to modify the truck a lot, and wanted a slightly lumpy idle I
would go with the last one(P4452810), otherwise I would go with P4452808.
All are $129 in the catalog and come with lifters. They also make headers
for your truck P4529478 (1 5/8" head pipes into a 3" collector) $149 in the
catalog. Check some perfomce outlet places that deal specifically in
Mopars and you might save some $$$.
