I'm wondering what kind of gains I would be looking at if I put new cams in the cobra. I was looking on summit but I didnt see any with really big lift but im guessing because its dual overhead cams that it wouldnt need a whole lot of lift. What do you guys think?

I'd say anywhere from 40-60hp maybe, but don't hold me to it. I'd hope you'd get that gain out of a 4v and for how expensive they are, mainly depends on what stage you go with.

Yeah I know I just changed the cam in my competition car for crash-a-rama and it cost me 200 bucks (doing the work myself) the cost of the cams alone for my freaking cobra is 1,200. Its crazy.

FRPP had a complete valvetrain kit for the cobras for 1600 with springs,cams,valves n'such that was like a 45rwhp gain but i cant find a link to send not sure if they still make it

In the Cobra it's typically not worth the money for cams... Although a cammed 4v sounds NASTY

You're better off putting it towards a blower..

your thinking of the fr500 package or the "high lift cams"

+1. Put it towards some type of FI.

Yeah, cams are more of a "sound" mod for us, than a performance mod, lol...

im staying N/A and going with Comp Cams extreme energy cams the lift is .425"/.425"

1800-6200 rpm range. good for what i want.
