Check these guys out. Sean makes 2V and 4V cams for a lot of race 4.6 Mustangs, as well as street Mustangs. They get really good reviews.</P>

Id stay away from comp cams. They have some serious designs issues that are causing some guys grief. USAMuscle is right on the money for cams.

Never heard of livernois...</P>


SHM makes a lot of parts for the 4.6, and they have a really good reputation for quality, that is why I mentioned them. Whatever you do, make sure whoever you buy from has a good rep. A good set of cams will set you back $500 or more, and you may as well get the most bang for your buck. Good luck on your search.</P>

Not sure exactly what kind of gain you will get, but on stock heads, i would guess no more than about 5-10 HP. For best results head porting and polishing should go hand in hand with new cams, as well as computer tuning, and anything else you can afford to get more air into and out of that engine, like throttle body and CIA w/ K&amp;N filter, and exhaust upgrades. Just notice a lot of people choose SHM cams.</P>
