Default Good street cam?

What's a good emissions friendly street cam? Max lift on the AFR 165's is .550 so I was thinking .512 maybe? I want a pretty big cam, but something emissions friendly.

I wanted to go with Crane Cams. Any suggestions from that company?

Any other company maybe?

I recommend giving crane cams a call or do what I did and email them your specs of your engine and they will email you back with a cam for your car

Im running a B cam and I like it alot. It will shake the car a little and give it a decent lope (running 13 degrees of timing right now). Ive also heard that the E cam is good also. These are Ford Racing Cams B303 and E303.

Go w/ the TFS stage 1. The AFR's should be checked for PTV clearance once you start getting close to .530......that's per Dave @ AFR. I emailed them asking that a while back.

+1 I also heard .530 is close to the max you want to run with stock pistons.
