You don't need to install a kernel because you already have one its included on all roms otherwise you wouldn't be able to use your phone. kernel is basically a leyer between hardware and your os .you can try different ones if you wanna oc or get a better battery life or wifi calling and so on .and you must make sure its compatible with your rom. also may I suggest you search for kernel in Wikipedia if you wanna get a better understanding of what is kernel and what it does.

First off let me say this i know about the search option, but i dont have the time right now to search all over the forum. So sorry about this but i gotta do it.
Could someone provide me with with a link to a stock ROM w/ a OC kernel if thats even available?
Again, not trying to be a noob but i just really need a straight up answer - thanks guys.

I dont believe ther is a stock rom with the oc kernal. You have to flash both seperately. Idk about the oc kernal, but the stock rom is in the rom bible.

For one, are you asking for a G2 rom in the slide Q&A? Because your sig says you are on a G2 not a slide. However, here are links to the rooted stock/wifi tether ROM w/ the OTA update and dumfuq's OC kernel:
CR_Mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747002
OC Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745805
With the kernel, if you flash 4.0 then you have to edit the init.d files to be able to boot, but if you flash 3.5 you won't have to. The only major difference is that 3.5 only goes up to 844 MHz and 4.0 goes up to 864 MHz. If you follow the instructions on dumfuq's original post you shouldn't have an issue editing your init.d files though.
Thanks man! It's for my bro-in-laws mytouch 3g slide so I haven't had time to browse this side of xda! Thanks again!

This is exactly what you are looking for. And I highly recommend it as I have used it for over a month with no issues at all.
Read up on this link and go for it. It is just like stock but very fast.
You can also flash a new kernel which I also recommend from pershoot.

Just curious as to why you specifically didn't want Cyanogenmod?
When I first got my first android phone I really didn't think I'd ever need anything more than a rooted stock rom, but after trying CM6 (which was the latest at the time), I never wanted to be on a stock ROM. CM really gives you the feeling of the stock rom (I even just install the stock launcher instead of ADW) but with tons of useful improvements in speed, battery life, and usability.
Not trying to persuade, but just wonderin I always keep a rooted stock 2.2 backup just in case, but I've been using CM7 as my daily for couple weeks now and its great.

Pretty sure Swype is an open beta now you can install it on CM7...
do i need to install custom rom to overclock?
I don't think so. Flashing a new kernel should solve this. But a custom ROM is pretty cool.

yeah a kernel will probably do the thing but i recomend getting a new rom.I hate to test kernels. And if you install a rom you already get a kernel in it.
Hey. I wanted to ask..
If it is possible to know the kernel ur using.. And how to change the kernel to the latest one..??

it depends on your ROM and support of the kernel for that ROM (or vice versa ).
i am using tiamat (details in my signature). You need to try diff. kernels and see which one is best & stable for your rom. you can use "ultimate_kernel_cleaning_script_v2_by_lippol94.zip" script before flashing the kernel. you can find the download in xda forum.
i dont get why do rom devs choose older firmwares as their base rather than thexlatiest one available at the time they decided to make a rom? even compleatly new roms use old firmwares.....
lol misspelled question -.-

It depends on the dev. Devs like pratyush dont own this phone so they make a rom with whatever stock rom they get. The dev of hybrid uses latest firmwares because he owns that phone. But there are also some devs who used the cooked roms as their base, modify them and upload it for example evanlocked
