waz up guys, i gotta couple of questions i hope u can help me with. the first is that i wanna add some more power to my 89 5.0. it has 150,000 miles on it and i know it time for either a new engine or a complete rebuild. i was thinking about adding a cam to my engine but i was told by the guys at ford that i CAN NOT and a cam until i change the heads, the upper lower intake and a whole slew of other things. it didnt seem like he was being strait with me and i want to know what you guys think.

2nd question- i just added a 190 lph fuel pump to my car and i was wondering if i needed to add a fuel pressure regulator as well? i havent felt any difference with the new fuel pump but it seems to do the job. do i even need a regulator is my question?thanks for all the help ---danny
