Fix the penum.

Full tune-up.

Harland Sharp 1.7 roller rockers.

Headers, high flow cat, better flowing exhaust.

TUNER!!!!! PM Hemifever on this website, he can set ya right up. 275.00 for a canned tune.

 

Yes, the " penum" is very important.

 

DOH!

That would be pLenum..... Damn keyboard, can't type worth a crap.

 

LOL! The penum is very important but the plenum is farther up the list So far up you can't see it OK sorry, back on topic.

 

Pretty much the above....If I had to start over fresh on a mag engine...this would be a few things on my list:

Dual E-Fans (FF Dynamics) $300

SCT Tuner by Hemifever $275

1.7 RR's $?

K&N Cold Air Intake $260

Ceramic Coated Headers $ 250

Hughes F1 Air Gap Intake Manifold $600 (top end power)

High Flow Cat, flow 44 muff, duals $400

Ported TB $ Cheap

Hughes Plenum Fix + Full Tune-up + 180 tstat $ ?

All are simple bolt on stuff and will give good results....plenum repair takes more time and effort....8 hr job.

WOW, i didn't know silver dodges engine compartment was so sweet. So clean you could eat off it!

 

WHen I saw that about 4 years ago, i wanted to do the same thing. ANd I did. I need to take my pic at that angle though. Better view and it will show off my MSD box.

Post them up! The Mopar valve covers are on my list of things to do. My hood just isn't open often enough to justify doing it at the current time.
