Would installing a bigger cam in a '99 Ram 360 do any good? Doesn't the computer control engine output? Would the computer need recalculated, and can that be done?
On a 1995 360 the Mopar Performance PCM computer upgrade,
and using 260 Sunoco 95 AKI octane grade premium gasoline,
made a “seat of the pants” daily driving difference
and dropped the quartermile ET over 2 seconds..
On hot summer days at an elevation of 400 feet above sea level
one or two of the V8 cylinders would “ping” at full throttle,
when RPM climbed past 3000.
If you cleaned carbon deposits out of cylinders 7&8 the pinging would go away for a thousand miles or so.
Fuel economy got a little worse with the MP PCM computer reflash.
The 1993 to 1997 Magnum 360 V8 camshaft specs are different
than 1998+ camshaft specs
My advice would be to not spend $ on the Magnum 360 V8
... spend money transplanting a 5.7L or bigger V8 Hemi in place of it for many advantages
or buy a Ram with the 5.7 or bigger V8 with the Variram intake manifold.
