RE: Cam Swap?
Yep, you can use:
Check out Modern performance cams and howell automotive cams
Crane #10
Super all around Street Performance. Excellent Nitrous profile with extra mid-range and upper rpm HP. Use low restriction intake and exhaust for maximum performance. Works well with stock engine and stock compression.
RPM range: Idle to 6,500
Crane #12
This cam profile features our unique “Split Duration” lobe profile design (exhaust duration is less than intake duration). “Spools” turbo faster for quicker boost and response. Reduces turbo “lag-time”. Strong upper mid-range and top-end HP when turbo boost is applies. For Max HP and RPM use intercooler and low restriction intake and exhaust systems.
RPM ange: 1,500 - 6,800
Crane #14
Radical Street/Drag Race profile. Needs all the major mods, like increased compression pistons, Race header w/equal length long primary tubes, aftermarket ECM, Race-prepped cylinder head porting.
RPM range: 2,500 - 7,500

RE: Cam Swap?
If you have a '96-05 non-Magnum, the '95 cam is a 4 HP increase, same as the Mopar 4HP cam (can use stock valvesprings, but an upgrade is recommended).
The 2001 stock Magnum cam will give gains similar to the Crane 0012 (will require better valvesprings if you don't have a Magnum already)
The 2002-up stock Magnum cam will give gains similar to the Crane 0010 (requires better valvesprings)
The Mopar 6HP cam will give a couple more than the 2001 Magnum cam (requires better valvesprings)
The Comp Cams 200 will compare to the Mopar 6 HP cam (can use stock valvesprings)
The Comp Cams 400 will compare to the Crane 0014 (requires better valvesprings)
Crane also has custom grind camshafts that are bigger, but not for the faint of heart. Requires lash adjusters...
All of the Crane cams will require a valvespring upgrade. Titanium retainers most definitely not required. Cheapest, most reliable route is usually stock Magnum valvesprings.
Best of luck!
