Care to do a write up on the install? I'd love to get cams, but don't want to pay the price for install. I've been quoted $1800 before.
I'm thinking about going with the VT Stage 2 Blower Cams with the Comp Valve springs from vt engines.
I've had the valve covers off before because I installed new ones and I installed the SC.

I was gonna do it in the shop up in q town myself, but I thought for 500 or a little less they could deal with the hassle.
BTW monkey, its a bad idea to do the cams now and the blower/engine later. If you truly are going to go with boost and a new engine, the best route is a set of custom cams setup for your blower/engine combo, and how much whp you want to make.

well, dude... My plans are to build a forged motor ready for a blower, so in theory stage 2s would work... but I want a stable idle and don't feel the need to rev to 7 grand, so yeah stage 1 blower cams....

im sure stage 2 would be fine... my car has trouble idling... but thats stage 3 cams... stage 2 is softer... its noticable but not to to rough.

RE: cammed the stang
sweet. I know, it's gonna be a custom engine build. What sucks is the only mustang place within a reasonable distance of my house is specialized in the classic stangs... they can get me parts, but don't do work on the newer ones.
I need to make some phone calls to various companies and engine builders and see what would be my best bet. I want about 400+ rwhp that's comfortable, and uses pump gas (92 or 93 octane premium). Gonna be forged and cammed..
as to blower cams, they don't increase boost, but they make better use of it, right?

haha or maybe he's just trying to kill it completely, lmao
not to hijack, but a side note, does anyone have or know of any video clips of a SOHC 4.6 with blower cams? I wanna know how they sound because that's what I'm gonna put in my new motor
