Default Cam for 2006 HEMI 4X4

I am looking for a good cam for my Ram. I want to make some good low and mid range power but I still want my truck to be steetable. I am going to be adding a 3" lift and 33" tires. I also would like some info on some headers for the 4X4. I have the CAI and exaust and a superchips flashpaq. I would really like to in the range of about 410-420 hp. Does anybody know about an after market intake manifold?

Also will the intake manifold and heads work from a 6.1 HEMI?

The 6.1L top end will work on a 5.7L bottom end,however I am not sure if all the accessories will bolt up correctly. Comp Cams makes several grinds for the 5.7/6.1 HEMIs you should be able to find one you like, AirRam also offers a 6.1L cam that will work well in a 5.7L, He is A sponsor here and quite knowledgeable about Dodge engines.Just do a search for him.

Here is the link to comp: http://www.compcams.com/technical/Ca...6-07/38-39.pdf

Do you have MDS?? I am assuming you want to be 410-420 hp at the wheels?

This is about your only option for a cam if you have MDS.

It is going to be a very long, expensive road though getting to 420 hp.

I should have been a little more clear, rwh at 420 would be really hard! I am looking at the flywheel.
