Default Re: explorer 5.0 engine swap

The stock HO cam is better than the Explorer cam that's for sure. I'm at 277RWHP and 330RWTQ with mine at this stage.

If he doesn't want to swap cams, timing cover and the other things that need to be done, then he shouldn't even be thinking of doing this.

Good point, and also i might add, with a exploder cam, and stock valvesprings, he'll be pulling hard to a whopping 4k rpm vs the 5.0, or at least a cobra cam would pull alot further, especially with some roller rockers.
