Hello all

I am going to be getting my old 93 Cobra back here soon and one of the first things i would like to do is switch the cam.

It has an E cam in it now and the 1.7 rockers to go with it. Does anyone have any sound clips of an F cam in a stock 5.0 with either the cobra iron or aftermarket heads? How well do these idle compared to the E cam?

Also, will this cam pass emissions?

Will i have to go with the 1.6 rockers as well for clearance issues?

Thanks guys,

Nick

Go to www.youtube.com and type in f303 in the search bar and their will be two cars with sound clips.

intense_blue · 12-18-2006, 09:01 PM

You're gonna need 1.6s with that combo.

You're buying a cam based on how it sounds??

Thanks man I have it set at 750 and I think the 1.7's makes it a little lopeyer.

Ive had the f303 in my car and went with a custom cam. I enjoyed the extra 25hp and 40tq improvement (w/ afr heads)...How it would sound never really crossed my mind

No, i just want to hear what it would sound like. I don't want a cam that has so much lope it feels like it is going to die while idling.

I like to specs of the F cam and the car has an E cam in it and i wanted to hear the difference between the two.

I also have thought of a custom cam as well, just havent put too much thought into it.

You should, to optimize your combo; otherwise Jay Allen will recommend on off the shelf cam for $50. Also keep in mind the letter cams were designed at least 20 years ago.

thanks for the pics. really sharp looking car.

RedStang91 · 12-20-2006, 10:01 AM

I have the f-cam in a 306. Dart iron heads (not drilled for emmisions), Cobra intake and long tube headers. All emmisions stuff is disconected and removed. I bolt up a set of 2.5 highflow cats every couple of years for the emmisions test and pass with flying colors every time. It is the Indiana emissions test. I put the fuel pressure at 38psi, Set the timing at 10 degrees, get the car good and hot then go take the test. Past 4 times taken I have always passed.
