you say it has a cam! funny i didnt hear any lope

[bpshunter]

yea its called mild, that way it doesn't run rough at low rpms so I didn't have to change torque converter. Only difference between a mild cam and stock is more mid rpm range power.

[bpshunter]

And I'm sure your Ram snaps off as fast as that? LOL i thought so.

hey, i got a 96 indyram and im looking to do the exhaust on it...what exact performance upgrades are installed on the exhaust on this bad boy...NICE SOUND!

[bpshunter]

just 3 inch pips, Y it off at the cat and 3 inch pipes with 4.5" tips

[brehmerboy]

when you gutted your convertor did you have any problems with the check engine light?

[bpshunter]

it pops on maybe once every two or three months but then I just clear it and I'm good for a few months

@gibsonlespaul2 my 95 has a mild cam and its just a tiny bit lumpy, but you can tell when you drive it, huge difference over my much more heavily modified '00 with stock cam. if the power band is a low rpm it wont have trouble idling, it gets a little lumpy but you can just notice it. also with 3" dual exhaust hes losing back pressure big time so the lump couldnt happen anyways.

Mild cam, Big Cam.

Either way it goes, It should still have a little bit of a lope.

[frankieboi1]

better mpg with the mild cam?

[dodge2289]

lol you should of just got 1.7 roller rockers. just like adding a mild cam just not as much work!

Now with that cam, did you adjust the computer or have to upgrade your valvetrain? Just curious, i have a 2001 ram 5.2 and am starting to work on it, so far its got the flowmaster 40 series and soon to come the k&n intake. But im tyring to get an idea, thanks.

I know this is probably the last concern when building an engine for more horsepower but what kind of fuel Mileage difference did the cam make? I am planning to rebuild my 360 soon and I am considering a mild cam so I am curious. Are the ported heads the only other thing you changed it's pretty much factory other then cams, heads, and exhaust?

@silverbullet1500ram Just because it has an aftermarket cam dosen't mean it will have a lope.
