what would be the best cam for 93 stang t-5, 410 gears I heard 520 lift is max with stock motor was looking at f,b,m-303 cams planning on better intake ,head set up soon want strong low to mid power and nasty sound thanks, also my starter acts like its still trying to engage even after the car starts, I checked to make sure it was the right starter and was wondering why there are two solenoids one on firewall and one starter .sounds like starter is still trying to engage new to ford world so bare with me

Not sure about the starter but I'd keep the stock cam until you get ready to tear it down and do the heads and intake and do the cam at that point while its already apart, practically speaking

if you just want a cam for none other than a choppity-chop sound throw an anderson n-41 or a trickflow stage 1 cam in, just dont expect any gains maybe even a loss until you swap heads/intake

TFS stage 1


but pick a cam that matches the mods you are going to add. Might be a good idea to do it all at once
