I'm very interested in vacuum leaks here, something Dodge has never really been good with. How does the engine run? I know with a V8 it can be hard to tell sometimes, but if it isn't "so buttery-smooth I can't feel it run" then I want to start there. The best part is that it's cheap and easy to check for vacuum leaks.
Start the engine and just let it idle. Start spraying some ether (starting fluid) around the intake manifold and all vacuum lines. If the RPM increases, you found a vacuum leak. It's pretty easy to narrow it down from there.
