I am going to change the springs as they float around 5000. I do plan on changing the kegger to the FI Airgap. I am going to call Hughes, Comp, and UTAWESOME Performance and see what they recommend. I did make turbo manifolds for a dual turbo setup on the 360 apparently they will handle 10 pounds of boost on the bottom end.

 

You want an entirely different style of cam profile if you are going to run boost. Minimal overlap. No point blowing your fuel/air charge right out the exhaust valve.

 

That's not until I get the 408 done or the Hemi comes (whichever comes first) I just thought it was pretty neat that stock they can run 10 pounds of boost.

 

Yeah, the bottom end is stout, too bad Dodge scrimped so much on the heads.

 

That is true
What do you think about this? Just called Hughes and they recommended the this cam along with their custom tune, upgraded springs, cam bolt and washer, and camshaft key.

​

 

Yeah, that looks tasty. Do you still have the stock converter in there?

 

Yeah I was going to replace it with a stock one from the company MonteC recommended. What did you have in mind? Also according to their instructions they want me to use a very specific break in oil and regular oil. I'm just a little confused here lol.

Also do I lost the tune before talking it to the dealer to set the fuel sync?

 

I was thinking maybe bumping stall up a couple hundred RPM.... Maybe around 2k or so? I think stock is 1600-1800 or some such...... Let the engine get further into the power band before putting too much demand on it.

I think Hughes just has an oil additive for break-in, but, not 100% sure on that. Best to ask 'em. Seems they DON'T want synthetic oil though.

I think you can go either way with the tune. It would run better with it though, which might make life easier, both getting it TO the shop, and having it idle properly while they are setting it up. You don't have a scanner that can read fuel sync??

 

No both my MT2500 and DRBlll took a dump and I sent them away to get them fixed. I wish I knew someone who would let me borrow it as all you do it turn the distributor. I do plan on calling them. They did say that it won't run without a tune.

 

I also have to figure out what their cam key is about. This will be my first Magnum build (haven't started on the 408 yet). My father even said it's junk because of the fuel sync . I do believe with that cam, headers, tunes, converter (can you find one you recommend), and eventually their intake and throttle body should net me some noticeable difference.
