I've got the exploder engine on the stand...flat top pistons with deep valve reliefs...I'd like to put in a Cobra cam to go with the GT40P heads and intake. Does anyone know what the stock cam was? also what's the code for the cobra cam *B303* ect...need a cam that'd get along with a speed density 5.0 HO computer.

The Cobra cam actually has less lift and duration than a stock HO cam. The cobra's had 1.7 raqtio rocker arms. The explorer cam also had less lift on the intake side. Performance wise AS WELL AS CHEAP go with the HO cam.
