That is also why I took a bunch of them off
Sometimes they have absolutely no affect or even adverse effects

info on the Ford Performance cams is easy enough to find. I believe this is what you need.I am lost with you mentioning E cams and alphabet cams etc
I need specs to relate
Lift and duration. Overlap and centerline
I have only had three cams in mine over the 45 years I have owned it
Really liked the Crane Blazer but runs best with a close to stock cam with roughly .488 @ 290
My POS is a flowin beeach with cleveland heads on a 302 and needs not much cam
Thanks for looking…Bill I cannot find it
I will keep looking though
Thanks! I checked it outinfo on the Ford Performance cams is easy enough to find. I believe this is what you need.
@manicmechanic007, thanks. The Mustang heads out to the body shop Monday, so it will be a while before I get the plate installed.You just install it using 2 new gaskets
Then try to make it run better (idle smoother)
By giving it more air at higher altitudes or shutting off some air if you are at or near sea level
It is trial and error for the most part
I realize this is a while ago, but this statement seems fishy to me...@manicmechanic007, my ‘86 (5.0, E303 cam, TFS TW heads, shorty headers, 24lb injectors, MAF, etc.) bucks a lot below about 1,200 RPM, making it difficult to drive in parking lots, etc. My tuner says it’s all happening before the TPS says the throttle plate is open. Would one of these plates maybe help with reduce the bucking?
@vristang, thanks for the input. At this point I’m just grasping at straws, trying to hopefully find a solution. Knowing what I know now, I would have used a different cam. It appears some people have no issues with the E303 and others do. Would the tuner be able to adjust the injector timing?Maybe my memory is hazy, and ratchet does reset each startup, it’s a 15yr old memory at this point, lol.
I guess the point I was kind of dancing around, was that I don’t think these plates will do much of anything for low speed bucking issues, especially when a cam has been installed, as injector timing is a bigger factor with cams than most realize, especially at low speeds.
