I was planning on running twisted wedge heads on my stock motor. I have a 95 cobra intake, and the lower is ported, also I have 1 5/8" headers, off road H, and flowmaster 2 chanbers. I was thinking about getting an F303 cam since it only have .512 lift it seems rather decent in prince, $190. Thanks

TFS1 and split profile cams that favor the exhaust side are good

what kind of power would I get out of the TFS1? Is this cam better than an E303 camshaft? I am no expert on camshafts, but what does the split cam do for you? Does it create a broader HP and torque band? Thanks

The goal is to even out the airflow, both into and out of the chamber. Since the intake side flows more than the exhaust side, you want a cam that favors the exhaust side to make up for what it lacks in flow characteristics. A single pattern cam (any of the motorsport cams) do not give you enough exhaust lift or duration to keep up with the intake side, thus leaving power on the table.
