Although, at high rpms the stock lash adjusters can benefit from a little better oil flow.

Hoss, if you're going to spin to 6300, make sure you upgrade your Harmonic Ballancer. Do a quick Wiki search for HB and read what it says. You'll quickly realize why I think it's so important.
I think its the more evenly distrbuted valve set up, i don't think the valves from the GTs differ much, atleast from the early cobras, if i recall correctly both valves are the same size, theres just more of them, hence distribution.

TRADE MY Mach 1 HOOD + scoop set up for easy GT install (attached, no intake system necessary, unless you want it) for a COWL hood and maybe STOCK + CASH (but probably not). The hood is painted silver, in great shape, does need a color sand, but thats no biggie. Would prefer a swap for a silver one, but will consider many options. Need to trade due to changed plan on this car. RTP/Greensboro/Charlotte

Wether or not I care about 1/4 mile times is irrelevant. The fact of the matter is the FASTEST cars with these cams shift at 6300+
