yes you can.. make sure you have all the manifolds and such to go with it... matter of fat keep the dohc ecu to and go with a header and intake right away.. with a sohc head on a dohc bottom end your looking at about 10-1 compression.
or better yet get a cam from a 2001 or 2002 r/t equivalent to a crane 12 cam.. also get the springs and retainers from one too.
Here are your stock sohc cam shaft specs.
Here are sohc crane cam specs.
The 2001 magnum cam has more lift than the preceding magnum cams. The stock 2002-2004 magnum cam has the same lift as the crane #10 came, but the crane #10 has greater duration. The crane #10 is closer in performance to the magnum cams than the crane #12, which out shines them all.
yes.. but it would be lower compression then even a sohc.. to the tune of 9.3-1 or somthing like that.... if your gonna turbo it then it would be great.. other wise your gonna want to do pistons too.
