These guys are right, the Cobra cam is a POS.

As far as the P-heads. You're asking for trouble if you don't upgrade the valve springs. I know, I had to. The P-heads were made for the Explorer and Mountaineer. If you've ever driven a 5.0 Explorer you'll know they don't rev well past 5k, let alone 6k. I about died laughing after comparing my new springs with the factory springs.

I'd like to mill my heads for more compression, but I have hyperteuctic (spelling?) pistons. Anyone know how much compression these pistons can take?
