PM Parts/Service, he is very competative on his Mopar parts.

BTW - I see that you have a KRC 210, pretty much what I'm going to do as soon as I take care of a couple of unexpected expenses. KRC 210 but with a -4 degree grind for some added low end torque, 6.1 springs, retainers, a damper and then the Superchips Flashpaq is being ebayed in favor of an SCT with a couple custom tunes...

Let me know how you like the cam when you're done...

thanks guys, i'll check these out. hammer, i'll let you know what i thinkof that cam. i had heard about what you were going to do with your cam to get a little extra torque in the lower rpms. the way i figured it is that i have a problem with too much wheel spin at take-off anyway. ican't get the wheels to grip till it gets into second gear anyway, then it downshifts back down into first gear. i almost lost a race to a tuner because of this.......almost. lol. but with the bigger tires and taller gears mixed with the cam i should be alright. oh, by the way. what do you mean by damper?
