You didn't mention a MP SBEC (Mopar Performance Computer)... If you don't
have it, then you ARE missing a lot... My truck is a '95 with all of the
mods
you have listed (save the MSD, wires, cap/rotor), and it runs 'ok' with the
stock
computer, and when cold it is VERY sluggish off the line. Drop in the MP
SBEC
and it's like night and day... 92 octane required though.... You'll be
surprised at
the difference.
