At this time I really don't want to pull the heads. Just looking at a nice cam and intake upgrade. I want something lopey that still pulls a good vaccum and makes good power.

Ok now to the important question. Whats a good cam for this little 5.2? I was looking at the 210x but it looks to come on alil to late for me. Current mods will include Hughes air gap, shorty headers, true dual exhaust (no cats) with ram air. Stock TB, stock heads, converter and computer. I already plan on buying a sct from hemifever and maybe a bored tb in the future

Check out the Cam finally installed thread by Aim4Squirrells.

If the 210 looks a little bit too much, have a look at the 206.

hughes has a really nice RV cam that should make good torque.

Bill white, one of the owners of KRC, has a really nice torque producing cam in his durango. He posts up a bunch at bionicdodge.com. I think the name of his thread was "bill's new combo, torque is a good thing.” or something along those lines.

Comp cams offers lots of cam choices as well. Try their free program camquest and input your engine data and check their different cam selections out.
