Well I think ive got the cam picked out, but im new to the fords, was wondering if anyone agreed, or would go a different route.

The cam is a trick flow cam, its specs out at

236/248 @50, 574/.595 of lift and 110 LSA

the motor its going in is a:

351 (.030) Gasket matched Vic Jr heads, Gasket Matched Vic Jr manifold Holley 750Dp carb. Compression is 9.1 with a set of speed pro forged pistons. It will also have a 2 stage nitrous system, prob close to the total of 250 total. C4 3500 stall, 3.55 gears with 28 inch tall tires.


any help, or confirmations would be great. Thanks

same cam i have in my motor.... should go 10.60s on the sauce the next time a spray it. I do believe a little bit more compression is recomended with the stage 3 cam though mine is a 11.5:1 motor

If it matters, motor is set up to spin 7500.

I thought about that, but one of my big goals is to keep it 93 friendly, whoop someones ass, pull up to BP and fill her up, of course the second fuel tank has good ole 110 in it lol

good cam for what you want then! I say go for it......it definetly thumps pretty hard and i havent had too much streetability issues and the ones i do have come from my carburetor.... Is the motor going to be fuel injected? Since you are going with a c4 you wont have the cam surge and bucking like i do at lower rpms in low gear with the T5
