I used a Split Second box w/ timing retard, additional injector control, and a MAP clamp. And I use a 7th injector that puts fuel through the supercharger.

Since yours is a 92, you might be able to get away with a megasquirt and still be street legal...

I think there is a plug-and-play megasquirt for your year too.. You have Renix right?

no 92 is obd1, chrysler changed from renix to obd in 91 or something. well the heads coming off. and a valve job is being done. and a camshaft, timing chain and valve springs are being put in. along with a header...still trying to decide which one. i think i might go apn just for budget reasons. and after thats done, ill see what my butt dyno tells me. if its unhappy then ill be pinching penneys for the megasquirt and supercharger, if its happy then ill just have to find something else to throw it on. haha. but the want for the eaton whine under the hood is growing... and it will be legal enough for it to pass inspection where i take it. as long as i can pass emissions, it will be fine.

also if putting comp cams camshaft number 68-232-4 with intake valve lift of .460 and exh lift at .476, can stock springs be used? it says that they cannot be on the website, but it also says there is a different valvetrain after 1988. either way i would like to put new springs in....just not sure which ones to get?

I'm thinking of putting Mopar Performance springs in my 98 if/when I get a new head.. Don't wanna go crazy with the spring pressure because it'll kill the cam.

i got the csf 3 row radiator done in about an hour and a half. awesome is all i have to say. the thing fits perfect, and im running just the mechanical fan, soon to be just one electrical fan, maybe two if needed. but you can tell that i only have a 160 degree thermostat in, soon as that t-stat opens the temp never budges. i also bought ironman 4x4 fabs motor mounts. they're super beefy. cant wait to get it all done.

just ordered the cam, lifters and timing set from comp cams. it looks like mopar performance makes the right springs and retainers for this head.

got the new camshaft in, the new valve springs are in, valve cover and head are on. the head was warped 4 thousandths so they resurfaced it. 5 angle valve job as well. new seals, and new springs. also new comp cam lifters. looks good. i cant wait to fire it up. the cam, header and valve job should work really well together to get me some extra ponies and extra torques.
