Title: adding a MOPAR cam to my TJ?
Post by: tacoma750 on March 21, 2007, 04:36:30 PM
hey guys..I have a 98 TJ.  So far here are my "performance" mods.
4:88 gears
intake/exhaust.
I know the jeep is not going to be FAST, thats why I have my VW...but ide like a little bit more.  I have a 4.0 TB/spacer waiting to go in, and I was concidering instaling a new cam.  What have you found out with installing a new high performance cam?  Did give you any gain, and is it worth the $$?

Unless you already have a Mopar cam, good luck finding one.  They have been discontinued and most where dumped onto ebay years ago.  They sold for $29, I might add.  No way, you'll find anything close to those prices today.  Most likely you'll have to buy a Clifford for $300.
