F/I Cams

Hey,

Just wanted to know what cams yall bought for your F/I application. I'm still not sure if I NEED to rebuild my motor (ill find out tomorrow) but either way im going to do it asap.

Cams will be my first purchase because I don't really need them.. and if I buy them first- I never resell stuff once I buy it.

Goal- 550whp on a MUSTANG dyno.

Questions?

i hit 550 on a dyno dynamics on a conservative tune with GTM S1 turbo cams, If I had to do it again I would do BC stage 3s, my power dies off really hard up top

My turbos are much bigger though so the comparison is sort of a moot point

I would say GTM turbo cams. I hope that you are planning a full tranny rebuild for those #'s so add another 3-5k.

The price might be a little cheaper since you already have the VB and upgraded TC, but it's still going to cost ya.

Well, once I build this motor I'm not touching this again unless something breaks- I have to finish the tranny too.

I'm not exactly sure what my choices are? I'd like something with a lot of mid/high power. Since I have a 3300 stall TQ converter, low end power would just be fail.

Any thing bad about having a pair of really aggresive cams?

Yeah I know- I wanna do the motor first- Considering it's a time bomb. I'll figure out where the tranny on my car starts slipping and then turn it down a psi untill I can finish the build on that.

I'll call ya if I need my roof cut off <3

Oh yeah and I wanna rev high =)

But now i see the problem not being able to raise my idle.. ugh i hate cams!

i got a set of scott performance cams in my car. unfortunately the company is no longer in business. i think they were similar to the JWT stage 1 cams, with the exception of the duration antd the fact the scott cams were made for FI(the first gen jwt cams were not to my recollection). i think it is like 230 or so on my cams. anyway, i know that there are more aggressive cams out there, but i wanted to keep the car an everyday type car( i dont really drive it everyday though). what i mean by that is that it idles fine at 850rpms and there isn't a lot of lope. just enough to let you know the vehicle is modified. i put down 600whp on a dynapak and 580's on a dynojet at 18psi with no headwork.

I had a set of Scott Performance cams in my car when I was SC

George how much power can one pick up with a set of cams? not the stage 3 aggresive ones as I want no loopy idle but lets say stage 2.

Hard to say, depends on the other existing mods and boost, I would say 20-40whp.

Okay I've put the sound I know to the word lope lol. How the hell would that sound on a V6?? I can't find a v6 with big cam.

Beeh I'm pretty discourage now honestly.
