E303 cam install?

[Mustang_289]

Dude - don't put the cam in unless you've got the heads and intake! My son learned this lesson the hard way. He went really crazy pickuped up an X303 and the Typhoon upper&lower intake. He didn't have the money for heads yet. I suggested to him - as you don't tell a teenager something - you should wait till you've got the whole package. Your car will only flow air as fast as your slowest component. In this case your bottleneck will be your stock heads.

Well, he installed the cam and intake, then he was complaining about the severe loss of power.

Put the 3.73 gears in with your stock combo - you'll be really happy for this. Gears are about the best "fell it in the seat" performance upgrade you can do.

Also be carefull with the AFR185, my son was looking at those heads great heads, but we would've had to notch the pistons. Picked up a set of AFR165s which are also good heads.
