96 dodge 5.9 out of a Ram 1500 with 40.000 miles

I out a 5.9 Magnum in my '79 Dodge Magnum with use of the stock serpentine belt drives and all the parts attached to it. AKA, the P/S pump.

For an intake, I used the Edelbrock RPM, 650 Edlbrock AVS carb and Hooker headers.
Cam wise, I have not made the leap. Magnumopars has a real nice cam. Your limited on lift. Hughesengines.com has trick retainers to allow more lift.

To recommend a cam, more info from you is needed about your car and it's intended purpose. What trans, gears, tire size, performance goal. Is a converter swap in the cards or is the stock converter to be used?
