RE: PROBLEMS PICKIN A CAM
a lot of people have been saying that this cam would be bad, but after seeing some recent #'s with it on ported stock e7's the trick flow stage 2 cam is a great cam for this setup. But its quite radical for a 5.0 and will fit ur setup, but if u want something mild the stage 1 is prob the best cam that u can get for the 5.0 other than a custom grind. so hope this helps

with the trick flow stg 2 u would definately have to flycut the pistons
check into the andersonfordmotorsports.com and look at the b31 or b41 cams
or have one made for set up and get ahold of jay allen at camshaftinovations.com
remember u pay for what u get and making hp isn't cheap

RE: PROBLEMS PICKIN A CAM
thanks jasper, but actually the trick flow stage 2 is probably the last cam u can fit in the 5.0 without flycuttin the pistons, someone is doin a similar setup as me, with gt40 irons and that cam, and he has it in there with the stock bottom end, with no notching. so this should help.
