 Subject: Need performance help

Message:
I have been going over and over about what to do for performance. Searched and searched. Now I would like your opinions. Was going to go supercharger, but I canned that idea/dream. I want to go N/A. So, I have a 2000 quad cab auto 4x4 3.55 gears and the 360. Already done 180 t-stat, k&n FIPK, plugs, wires, cap, rotor and exaughst. I need to set up my mods so that I don't loose much or any torque down low and want good power to red line. So here is the combo I've been working on,
1. Mopar PCM/PP3(??) (Not sure about power programmer)(currently have death flash)
2. 50mm TB
3. PPH headers, custom Y-pipe
4. 2bbl m-1 or modded beer barrel intake (hughes),depends on low end torque loss.
5. KRC 206x cam. I would really like something pretty radical, but I have to be realistic and that this is a 4x4 and I don't want to run stall.(any more help/info on this cam or others would be great)
6. 3.92 gears later (mostly higway driving right now
7. Later on, heads??
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I know people are always asking what to do, what to do. If marty and/or bernd is out there I would really like there expertise.
Also, with the top five ingredients what to you estimate/guestimate my rear wheel horsepower might be.
Thanks.

Read my other posts on the 206X cam. It has a little "quiver" to it and it would probably not be the cam for a 4x4 especially with 3.55 gears. (I have 3.92's) Don't get me wrong, I love the cam, it's bad to the bone!! You need low end with the 4x4, I would probably stick with a modded kegger and keep the camshaft duration down and lift up. Check with Marty at KRC, he knows his stuff!!

Your list sounds about right if your looking to race the 4x4. But as RED said if you want the low end stick with a modded manifold and maybe have a custom cam ground from crower to get you good low-mid range power.

Thanks for the suggestions. Would the krc 206 cam be a little better or is that still a little overboard. I don't want a race 4x4, but I do want a pretty quick one. I really just want a good all around cam. I read red's comments on the 206x and it does sound just a little to wild for this trucks purpose. Does anyone else have any suggestions or ideas. Thanks
