consider a different clutch, from expirience I've at up 2 king cobras ina year. I bought a advanced auto heavy duty clutch, still good. Second, if I'm not mistaken if your putting on a bigger MAF you'll need bigger injectors then the piuny 19 pounders. Like 24s atleast.

I think that is a flat tappet cam , stick with a roller cam , trickflow stage one is a good off the shelf cam

Copperstang87 · Jun 4, 2006

Comp Cams XE 268H Exteme Energy hydraulic cam
Hydraulic lifters
Timing chain
Matched valve springs
Valve spring retainers
Valve locks
Valve stem seals

HYDRAULIC: Great for street machine, 2200+ stall torque converter. RPM Range: 1,600-5,800 RPM

is this a flat or roller cam?

TFS Stage 1 cam.

Stick with the 19's if on stock E7's. Get a C&L or aftermarket MAF for them though, will help it breathe.

Good aftermatker upper/lower intake. Possibly a Throttle body if you got the cash for it.

McCleod clutch (not twin disc). they run a lil over 300 bucks and you KNOW McCleod is top notch stuff!

If you go with GT40 heads, get a set of 24#'s with a 75mm+ MAF for them.

You'll be good to go. Sticky tires, fats/skinnies, and drive the piss out of it and its got 12's!

this is the extreme energy 264 HR cam you want.
as for the K.C. clutch i have one in my car right now i spray 150hp shot of juice and i have a 351w which makes gobs more torque then you guys running 302's. I have run 11's with this clutch on slicks. hell i busted a axle shaft with this clutch. must not slip. Its a good clutch. for slicks i ran 26x10.5'sx15 on factory turbines. worked great.

that other one i posted says that you should use 1.7 ratio rockers with it here is the .512 lift version i guess with 1.6 ratio rockers.

86bluecobra · Jun 4, 2006

here is a nice page to look at all of comps cams for the 5.0L. i ran a XE 268 in my 351w. I upgraded to the XE 274. much nicer cam plus it has a lot of characteristics of a nitrous cam which i wanted since i was running juice.

run comp cams XE266HR or XE274HR cams those are very good cams, run lager TB 70mm, get at least 24 pounders inyectors, for the clutch run spec stage 2 or something like that (dont run centerforce they suck) and if i were u i port the GT40's they dont flow much and put LT's headders and for the tires you can run M/T street 26X10.5 they grip hard and they are DOT aproved...good luck and you should be on 12's

I have atleast 20k miles on my centerforce dual friction clutch. Over 12k miles with the 408w in my sig. The throw out bearing has gone bad before the clutch The centerforce is very good and streetable.

The only complaint I have heard on the spec clutch is that it is tough to slip in daily driving. Your fully engaged or fully disengaged, no slipping the clutch into gear when in traffic.

that is the exact problem i found with the center force. My fatherin laws gravel drive way didn't seem to like that clutch any. always had 2 wheels spinning.

There has to be 800 sets of heads out there that are better than the gt-40 if you do not have them already look into other options, my dart proheads were 1100 complete and they will out flow those gt-40's all day long, a motor is only as good as it cylinder heads, you need at least 76mm mass air and a 70mm tb, 24lb injectors and you have to put in a new fuel pump the stocker is 88lph you need at least 190lph if not more if you plan for more power in the future. also look into custom cams more power and a cam that is right for your appilcation, and only and few dollars more,i made this miskate, i like my e-cam but i would not buy it again

For what? I ran a 73mm C&L, 19lbs and a 65mm TB for years. Old motor made 293 rwhp and ran 12.4s @ 109 on BFGs.

I would suggest the use of a larger TB and MAF but you do not NEED them.

what size slicks should I run on stock 15x7 mustang gt turbine wheels?

Maybe these. I don't know anyone that has used them, but they have larger valves than the GT-40s plus they are aluminum and only $800.

wut size slicks on stock 15x7 wheels? I have 3:73 gears and I made up my mind im going to run a 100/125 shot of nitrous and leave out the h/c/i until I have all the right pieces(over the winter i imagine)

86bluecobra · Jun 11, 2006

i ran 26x10.5 r15 slicks on my factory gt turbine rims.

Copperstang87 · Jun 12, 2006
