Stock H.O. cam. Is it worth it? Reply #1 – October 13, 2007, 12:47:59 PM It's an improvement,with the E-7 heads and headers.The firing order is different than stock to.Really not worth the hassle on a stock 5.0. Quote Selected
Stock H.O. cam. Is it worth it? Reply #2 – October 13, 2007, 01:13:31 PM If I remember correctly the 5.0 HO cam has a lift of 444 and a lobe seperation of 115. The "E" cam work pretty well with most any combo (n/a turbo NOS or Blower) and also the F cam with a 512 lift works good. Either will give you a nice old school sound and make decent power. Not sure of the specs on the 5.0 cam. If you really want it I will find out for you. I have it written down somewhere... Quote Selected
