Default Need Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Recently bought a 95 gt. 5.0 came wit a Trick Flow StreetBurner Intake already on the car. Also the owner threw in a E303 Cam and a set of Gt 40p heads. Will this Combo work???? Or should i just dump the extra parts?? If this help it also has a set of bbk shorties as well. Thanks Folks......

From what I've read gt40p heads are not exactly a "direct" bolt on. Im not 100% sure for the 94 and 95 5.0, but I know for my car they require special headers to work properly. Also I've read you have to tweak the timing as well for them to work right. I assume your car would have the same issues.

Not that I've had one but I've known others with an E303 cam and it performed well with the right combo of other mods. Not necessarily a throw-away item.

My point is more centered around the fact that researching and deciding on a good cam is essential because if you're going to tear down the engine to that point, you want to have a good outcome and not be disappointed after it's all put back together.

If you realize that researching a good cam is essential, then you would know that the E303 is a piece of ****.
