ok i just happen to have this B303 cam laying around im just wondering if its even worthwhile to install the thing? Being i guess the only cost to me will be a 30$ gasket set and a few hours on the weekend when i would be bored anyway.....

Do it, I wouldnt spend money on it though, so if you have it laying around and can get it in for around 30 bucks go for it, I really like my bcam, its strong up top, and has an awesome idle, not the best cam in the world, a tfs stage 1 cam is only like 160 bucks? Id save up for that if your gonna go through the effort, but if your bored and can do it and have it laying around go for it.

That probably wouldn't work out well /w your combo... judging by the avatar and the name. Might have to get a new block etc, fab motor mounts and such. Not sure if a 302 will fit under that hood...

lol the mustang is my old car. Its my wifes car i gave it to her after i bought that Evo... Btw the evo isnt rice... The evo is a purpose built rally car. and btw i didnt come here disrespecting your car/cars i can if you want but honestly i respect mustangs. The reason i havent posted since i registered i havent been interested in modding the car till now. So please atleast show me some respect here... I respect anything fast and alot of stuff that isnt even close to fast.... so please dont take the ricer **** any further there is no need....

Oh yeah and just for reference this post is in an effort to make her car faster than mine for under $1500 just to see if it can be done which in redneck ass NC i believe it can be ford parts are a dime a dozen....

LEAVE NOW WHILE YOU CAN RICER!!!!!!!!!!


JK, if you feel like doing the work, it will be worth it. But gauranteed once you get in there you will find other things that need/want replacing and you will spend more money. So just go ahead and buy the TFS kit, lol. Most of us know that EVOs arent rice. Thats pretty much reserved for Hondas

yeah she does very well with her car thats why to this point i wasnt interested in modding it. I figured let her get used to it then let the fun begin..... This cam was in the car previously actually when i bought the car ugh thats a long story but anyway that engine had all the rod bearings spun when i bought it and didnt find out till i changed the oil the first time. But anyway the cam didnt seem to bad to me @ the time but i figure im going to work the GT-40p castings i have and install this cam @ the same time.... Save myself a little trouble anyway....
