DOHC swap or crane camshafts or an Indy intake, or better yet, all three. dont forget about the exhaust, but where can you find longtube headers? A stepped set will improve torque, go like 1 3/4" to 1 7/8" Hell yeah..

I didn't even look at his username, so I would assume he has a 98 R/T which would have a DOHC and MTX already.

Do you wanna sacrifice low end for top end?
