Message:
I`d just like some advise on what knid of modifications I should do while dropping in a new 3.9. My daks an 89`and I have basically 2 engines for parts to build from. I was just wandering what would be the parts I should buy new to add some more power or boost. I probably dont need any new parts but I would like to beef things up a bit. Any ideas at all would be greatly appreciated.

Mopar makes 2 cams for the pre mag engines
towing RV and RV performance both run very well
Set of headers will also help on the TB injection

Thanks for the info Larry. Should the cam be purchased bran new?? Could you tell me how much more performance this will add? And with the headers, I should buy those new as well eh?

unless you can find a used cam for the premag or
someone to do a regrind.
The headers on a pre mag throttle body injection
react the same way they did on the old carbed
engines ading hp and torque unlike the multiport
which will lose low end do to loss of back presure
unless the intake side is improved first
summitracing.com has headers for the premags

So Larry, would I be better off going with the RV performance cam? I dont plan on doing to much towing, besides the occasional fishing trip which I usely just throw the boat on top. Any good suggestions on where to get a cam?
