are you wantin an all motor?
for cams there is one that makes 63 hp at the wheel with exhaust and intake, i believe that also requires headers. if your doing a turbo though... be careful with the cams as cams for NA engines dont work so well for forced induction ones. i think its comp cams that offers the best cams so far for the hemi.

if you are willing to spend some $ for a turbo then just get the kit and a new tranny that can handle the power and bolt it on. thats wat i would do if i had the money IMO. i think the stock internals can take like 7-10 Psi before they turn into a 5.7L bomb.

I'm not sure on the 6 speed but I think some guys have thrown the manual tranny from the 2500 behind a 1500 hemi.
