If you're serious about using your Jeep drivetrain, you're already in a good position, since you have all the wiring necessary to make it run and drive.

You may also want to check out Utahawesome Performance. Marty Fletcher has been doing some fantastic work with the 5.9 Magnum platform. He's spent a lot of his own time and money developing a cam grind that will work with the stock valve springs, and improve the power output of the Magnum motor at the same time. He combines this with an SCT tuner loaded with custom tunes, designed to make the most of the cam, and lifetime support.

Since I already have a different cam, I'm going to get with Marty for the tuner and tunes to match.
