THIS IS MY 1994 LIGHTNING.

I've got some cam questions. First, can a different/better cam be put in the stock motor as is. STOCK. Does it HAVE to be converted to roller? The cam area is one area I lack knowledge in. What's the difference between Hydraulic and Mechanical? I was told to convert to roller and add 1.7 rr's. What size cam could be run in it after the conversion?

I'm staying speeddensity for a while cause I just don't have $1000 to throw at a mass air conversion, if I even ever switch at all. Mustangs were so much easier and cheaper in that dept. Besides, I know a few mustangs on Mustangworks that are running up to F cams on their speeddensity motors with no problems. One, in particular, is running in the 12s.
