Ford man: who has specs on a 93 Cobra Cam?

[4dStang]

I picked up a 93 cobra cam for cheap and I am deciding whether it is worth it to put in or use a e or f motorsport cam. The only problem is that I can't find the specs on cobra camshafts.

I used to have the specs, but have since lost them. The Cobra cams were actually worse than the HO cams from the regular 5.0s. Also the Cobra computers were worse than that of the regular HO ones. I would suggest not using it, but definately try and find the specs!

Ford apparently deemed it unacceptable for the Cobra to suffer a loss in low-end torque due to the GT-40 heads and Cobra intake, so they used a cam even milder than the regular 5.0 HO had. Rumor has it it is the same or similar to the one used in 5.0 Thunderbirds. To the bes tof my knowledge, the Cobra computer doesnt suck, its the programming. I suppose you could flash it with A9L specs with a twEECer and have a 5.0 HO/T5 computer....

I was thinking about just going with an e cam instead anyway. I guess the 1.7 rockers gave it the little better OOmp to be in a cobra.

I just wanted to find the specs to see if they were any different than my HO cam. Why take it out if it is a crappier cam than my HO! Thanks for the input
