Specs....MP Cam....P5249549

.458"/.467" lift

204/208 duration at .050"

with 1.6 rockers

The R/T uses a stock 5.9L cam out of the Ram if I remember right...it has
low .4xx lift or high .3xx lift...can't remember.

Here's a kicker. The 380 horse crate motor cam is supposed to fit in the
Magnums.

Verbatim from the MP catalog:

"Hydralic roller cam designed for 1992-98 Magnum engines or 300/380 Magnum
Crate Engines. Features .501"/.513" lift and 288-292 duration."

P4876348

Now, I'm guessing that this is with 1.6 rockers, too. Duration at .050" is
???. I don't really know though. As far as emissions and crap, I have no
idea if the crate motor cam will pass, but the R/T cam should(and is
CARB/EPA legal), although it says 92/97 on years that it will fit. It's
probably just a misprint and they left out 98.
