So I know this question has been asked on here a million times. I hit the search button on here and on www.mustangforums.com, but didnt come up with any good ideas. I want to get a new cam for my car, but so far havnt found exactly what I've been looking for. This is my setup i have right now.
93 LX
Stock bottom end
E cam
AFR 165's 58cc Pedestal Mount
Crane 1.6 rockers
Eddie Performer Intake (old style)
Eddie 70mm throttle body
BBK Underdrives
Flex Fan
Fluidyne Aluminum Radiator
Hedman Shorties
BBK Catted H-pipe
Flowmaster Force-II Catback
4.30's-----------soon to swap to 3.73's
And this is what I have sitting on my living room floor...
MAC LT's
MAC o/r H-pipe
MAC CAI
Granatelli MAF
Prof. Products Polished Typhoon Intake
Electric Fan from Lincoln Mark VIII
Basically, the car was dynoed before I bought it. It put 280 to the wheels. The power starts dropping off at about 5200. I need a cam that will pull up to 6500 to match the powerband of my Typhoon intake, preferably without having to notch my pistons. I drive the car daily and race at the local 1/8th mile every weekend. I currently have 4.30's but want to switch to 3.73's. Here are the cams that I have been considering...
FRPP X-cam
.542 lift
286* duration
Crower 15513
.512 lift
288*/298*
How do these choices look? The crower cam is pretty darn expensive at about $340, while the X-303 comes in about $175. I've been told to stay away from the ABC cams, not that they are bad, but b/c dual pattern cams have newer technology.
I am eventually going to sell the AFR 165's and get a set of 185 stud mounts, and build a 347 shortblock.
