Haha it may be kind of hard for you to lift the front end with 39's on there lol.

Personally I would look into an sts turbo set up if I were you. They get the best power gains and generally add a few miles per gallon. The heads and cam are a good idea but it may make it difficult to go forced induction later on down the road with certain cams and heads.

Or you can yank your motor out and send it to the boys at the hemi shop and get a 392 stroker motor. They just had a 370 stroker run a 12.6 I believe it was so their motors sure do move.

I guess you kind of need to decide now what kind of money you want to spend on this project and if you want to stay naturally aspirated or go forced induction.

Oh yeah, here is that turbo companys website if you are interested at all. www.ststurbo.com go to the products link then click on the ram hemi application.

No problem go49ers. I surf a few dodge forums and read tons of good tech related stuff on another forum so I share stuff over here when ever I can.

Here's some MDS compatible ones, along with a conversion to go non MDS.

also, the hemishop sells completely built stroker units (you could get a 6.1L stroked out to 426 if you really wanted some serious power).

As I said before, once you start putting out that serious power, you should consider a built up tranny.

if you go stroker you will probably need some custom tuning done; I think DC performance has some flashes for stroked hemis. Or you could buy an SMT-6 tuner and tune it yourself or with the help of a dyno.
