Hi,

What is the ignition order for E303 (from Ford) and 290HR (from Comp Cams) ??

Anybody knows the exact characteristics of this camshaft (290HR)
(Over lap etc...) ?

Thanks,


Thanks,

The E303 was (pretty sure) a nice aftermakert cam for the 5.0 engines, so the firing order is 1,3,7,2, 6,5,4,8. Can't help you with the specs right though, but I am sure someone here knows it.

The E303 cam is only a step up from stock with only 498 lift and 220 duration at .050 . The comp cam has 230 duration at .050 and 544 lift and has a 3000 to 6500 rpm power range, this cam is a street strip cam and requires a 3000 stall converter of course. Did you know that you can use a 5.0 roller cam in a 289 or 302 none roller block, yep, just use the crane roller lifters #36532-16.
