whats wrong with jegs? Ever ordered from them?

Summit is good stuff too. For some reason their site wouldn't load on my computer for me to check that they stocked the Comp cams.

Go with a 400, it'll make more power. The 200 will still be better than stock, but I'd go with a mag cam over a comp 200. Similar power, better price.

The comp cams are designed to be used with the oem springs. The crane 14 is the one that needs better springs.

Yes, but it's recommended by the factory to use Magnum springs for the 400. 400 is designed for a Magnum motor, the 200 is for the plain jane 2.0.

It is recommended for the Magnum cams to use Magnum springs. Comp Cams does not recommend anything but standard springs. They do not state any differences in needs between the 200 and 400.

But I would still go with the Magnum springs, because they are cheap, you get new retainers with them, and fresh springs never hurt.
occasional demons wrote:IIRC the ramps on the 400 are less agressive for use with the standard springs. While it may open the valves farther, it opens/closes them slower.

They about both in Ohio. It's not a very big state, so that shouldn't make a difference in shipping time. Jegs has a 1-2 day guarantee advertised on the front of their catalog.

Thanks guys, so im looking at
https://www.dodgeparts.com/oe_parts_cat ... 7ed36adf4c
and
https://www.dodgeparts.com/oe_parts_cat ... 7ed36adf4c
do those look good? And ive always wondered, if i get an adjustable cam gear, can i manually retard the timing through that? or will the computer mess with it?

sorry the links dont work, its just the stock rt springs, im guessing they come with retainers? and that the springs and retainers are the same for exhaust and intake?
