Hey guys I'm looking to over haul my engine in my 2000 ram 1500 4x4, 5.2l 318, while I track down a new transmission. What have some of you guys done for mild upgrades to improve the performance of the motor ? I'm looking to go up to the 300 hp range.

First question is are you talking wheel horsepower or crank horsepower? Crank horsepower, swap a 360 and follow the bolt-ons I have in my signature. That'll put you around 315-325ish at the crank. Wheel horsepower with a 318 you're looking at doing heads cam and intake with custom tuning. 360 won't take quite as much but still looking at list.
