I have been reading all about the letter cams. Some love them and some hate them. It seems that they are a nice off the shelf cam but others out there are better. Sure i could custom order one but i dont know enough about motor timing to really custom order one. For 200$ i think the E303 is the way to go. It seems like a nice upgrade thats safe and not to crazy.
So i know i want to go turbo but that is a different can of worms for later. As for now i need to get the motor build list going so i can look for parts on sale over the winter.
PLease look through my list. If you think i should change a part out for another please let me know. Im open for all opinions.
1. E303 CAM-$200
2. Ford Racing M-6500-R302 - Ford Racing Lifters $125
3. 1985-1996 Valve Push Rod: 5.0L Hydraulic Roller Tappet $35
4. 1979-95 FORD MUSTANG 5.0L 5.8L FORD RACING COMPLETE ENGINE GASKET SET $95
5. 1985-95 FORD MUSTANG 5.0 5.8 COMP CAMS TIMING CHAIN SET MAGNUM DOUBLE ROLLER $50
6. GT40P 3bar Heads (will have them cleaned up and a valve job done) $50 junk yard-clean up and valve job free from a friend
7. 1979-95 FORD MUSTANG 5.0 5.8 TRICK FLOW VALVE SPRING UPGRADE KIT FOR OE STYLE CAST IRON HEADS $170
Not including oils and such my total build is about $725
Should i replace the rockers? If so 1.6 or 1.7 (most likely going to use gt40p heads)? ANything else i should change?
