Just noticed you have 4.10s. What speed were you going coming back? That's some good MPG for such low gears.
I'm still on the fence between 3.73 and 4.10.
I would like to think a s/c'er is in my future so 3.73 may be better...I don't know.

Is that MPG better or worse than before?
Do you have before & after dyno numbers?
Awesome stuff. I am convinced FRPP cams can be good but I'd be real good & damn sure I had a tuner that knew what he was doing before I dived in.

sirknight, thanks for the support and save your $$$$!!! call chris at murillo motorsports when you have about $500+parts to install the cams and you'll be in heaven. I guarantee...

Find a good tuner. You will gain ~40whp and 20whtq. I did. My next mission is to find out whether these cams are compatible with a 100 nitrous shot.

Murillo Motorsports is a TOP NOTCH place. Two mustang dynos and a really nice shop. I just hung around waiting to be rung up looking at all the bad *** cars in his place. Turbo Z06 vette, late model Z28 with some kind of FI, dodge viper, his personal race cars, several Cobras, Saleens.
Just be ready to pay $700 for the cams, ~$500 for installation and $500 for dyno-tuning
. It was a lot more expensive than I had planned but I'm really happy with the way the car runs now so....meh.

Murillo FTW!
I can't wait to hear it. Sounds like Murillo is in my future.
I just wonder if he could still tune them just as well with the SCT. I'd rather not buy a new hand-held.
What was the HP/TQ before and after? Do you know where you were before the cams were installed?
That's also some impressive MPG. I've been getting only 19-20. I used to get more but with my bama race tune I'm a few less.

I was at 292.54hp and 307.68tq prior to the cams. Now I'm at 337.4hp and 328tq. It was expensive but worth it I suppose. I plan to install some aftermarket COPs and UDP's next week which should have me sniffing the 350whp mark.
