Default 360 Acceleration

Hey guys, I happened to shoot an acceleration video of my 2002 dodge ram with the 360 in it. Its a 2wd, lowered, with the 3.92 rear end. I currently have a full exhaust (shorty headers, magnaflow cat, aeroturbine 3030, new 02's), superchips 91 tune, CAI, 180 degree thermostat, and full tuneup done to the truck. I just wanted to show the guys who were considering these goodies what they can do and how they waken this engine. The run is uphill from about 60 km/h onward, but I think she still pulls pretty good! I am open to suggestions on what I can do to unleash even more ponies, something that involves diving into engine internals perhaps??

Harland Sharp 1.7 roller rockers.

If you are interested in acceleration, a different manifold would be in order as well.... and a cam.... and heads.... and.... How fast do you want to spend.

I was contemplating buying the HS 1.7 roller rockers at the same time as I was looking at headers, turned out shipping to Canada was going to be rediculous so i never ended up purchasing them at that time. They are definitely on my wish list though! Do you think I am nearing the limits of the superchips canned tune if i were to go with 1.7 rockers? Would i see more gains in getting an SCT tune by hemi fever? Any word from guys with similar mods would be great!

So far the best mod i have done for speed in my 2500 is keeping just a couple of gallons in the fuel tank...lol I did put a set of E fans on my last Ram and they do help with some torque off the line, plus a little better throttle response. My whole setup cost less than $100.

I still think the best "mod" I've done for my truck, as far as acceleration was removing the spare tire from underneath. Ran like a HEMI afterwards.

You also need to learn how to use the interweb and these things called forums. Go to the Durango section of the forum for your model year and post your own thread in there.

OL_redram, you just inspired me. Gotta shed that weight from somewhere! Next run will be on fumes with no spare tire...
