You're talking the 5.9 gasser in your Dakota, right? To get to 400 in that would likely need a full performance build, including a stroker to increase displacement. The 5.9 Cummins can get there almost with only a programmer.

Here's my daily driver hot rod. Its a 06 Toyota Tacoma with the X-Runner package (18"wheels, body kit, suspension etc) 4.0 6cyl with 6sp. Lighting is making it look orange on my camera phone for some reason though. Its stock excpet for the black headlight mod, B&M shifter, and sound system.

He's actually got the 5.2 gasser, what we really need to know is if its a Magnum or not and what fuel injection system he has. If its multiport instead of throttle body, 300 crank hp might be possible with headers, a hotter cam, rockers, and a little ecu tuning. Some aftermarket heads on top of that should take you over 300 crank hp no problem. Check out some dakota sites, there's a bunch and have alot of info.

'04 nissan 350z roadster... touring package (fully adjustable heated leather seats and heated mirrors, 240 watt 7 speaker Bose sound system, etc.). not much done to it yet, but i've got big plans for her. so far i added tints, a plenum/throttle spacer, popcharger (CAI kit), and race pipes. soon will be a dual catback exhaust, a new ECU reflash from technosquare, wheels and tires, and possibly some custom paint. down the road i'd like to add a bolt-on supercharger.
