I have the FRPP Hot Rod cams and absolutely love them. But, Brenspeed has just released their new cams that sound great and make more power than the Hot Rod's. Check out this thread on mustangforums.com: Brenspeed's "Detroit Rocker" Camshafts Dyno Results!!! - MustangForums.com

Yeah, I would personally go with the Brenspeed Detroit Rocker cams or FRPP Hot Rod cams. I don't trust BBR, especially with internals, and I don't know anyone that has their NSR cams, but I know the Hot Rod and Detroit Rocker cams have a lot of R&D put into them.

I was already to go with the hot rods then brenspeed came out with their detroit rockers. Those are looking very good. I like that dyno sheet.

Gonna purchase later this month.

wow thanks guys, looks like i found my answer. wonder what gains will be without LT's, as i do not have. Looking at the new FRPP intake manifold as well, and a driveshaft all at the same time.

Why not do cams and LTs at the same time instead of the other stuff? They would complement each other.

Agreed,
that is the best way to go if it's in your budget.

I wouldn't have a problem w/BBR cams, they're a great company and really research their products. But, the Brenspeed rockers look like the way to go for me. Excellent N/A power, a good idle and Brenspeed is another excellent company. I have dealt with BBR and Brenspeed. I would give my business to either. I just like that new Brenspeed cam, the dyno results look awesome.

3D Carbon

Some people don't like it because the headlights are close together compared to other brands. But who cares, they don't have to look at the front, they can look at the back as I'm passing them!

BBR cams are ground by Comp. Just buy their billet cams and stay away from their regrind junk.

So I guess I've been behind the curve, as I just got my Hot Rods installed. I love the sound and one of my co-workers with his 'Maro SS thinks it's pretty badass too.


Got the car dyno-tuned as well and it made 335rwhp and 345 lbft, up from 310 rwhp and 330 lbft. Not a bad improvement if I say so myself.
