Default cam size?

any one know how big the cams are in the Mach1? I assume they are the same size as the GT and Cobra. I found a cam for my car for $70 (of course i will need two DOHC) but i was just wondering how big the cams are so i will know if it is any bigger.

Umm, you are going to need 4. Dual overhead cams>2 cams on each head.

What kind of cams are they, because I've never seen 2v or 4v cams for that dirt cheap.

I actually believe it's 289, which is the old ohv motors. All those motors are OHV, which use the single cam.

Yea umm... those are all for a regular small block Ford NOT a 4.6 DOHC like you have. They won't work in your Mach1
