OK sounds good. I have already purchased a set of new Qualcast valve springs but someone mentioned I should use springs for the 6.1 exhaust?? Same on all 16?? Anyone have a part number or supplier? How about a cam reccomendation that will work with the stock PCM and pass emissions? Thanks -Jim

Question

Went ahead and picked up the 07, it only has 30,000 miles but I still am not sure about something. Do I definitely have to swap the cam and lifters to use the 07 Hemi in my 03 Ram? Thanks -Jim

YES. The original 07 cam and lifters are for MDS. Personally I would take all that crap out, the less plumbing and things to go wrong, the better. I hear the Comp 260 is a good all around cam with a programmer.
