the B cam would work good with 1.7's id say. it has an aggressive lope too and i think its EEC compatible.
I have thought about that but I really want a dual rate cam, the 165 exhaust ports flow so well. Here's Steeda says about the 18, which is identical to the 19 except has a LSA of 112, " Get the cam and valve spring package that puts the normally aspirated Steeda GT-40 engine package in the 11.90's at over 113 mph! We've tried a bunch of cams and this is the best for making horsepower on a street-able 5.0 with and without a supercharger. Originally developed for supercharged engines, we found that it beat out the popular brand name cams on naturally aspirated engines as well! "

Idk, sounds like a good choice to me

I cant go with a cam like TFS1 or the one Adder suggested because its too much lift with my 1.7 rockers. I'm keepin the Cobra intake for now because I eventually want to do a KB and dont think it'll be worth swapping the intake. I know I could call all the cam companies but I dont feel like dealing with that, when they're probably just going to tell me more stuff I dont want to hear. I basically would like to know which of those 2 cams would better suit my car.
WHOA WHOA.. wait just a second!!!!!

If an F cam will fit in a stock 5.0 with 1.7's the cam i showed you WILL fit... F cam runs .512 intake and exhaust measured on 1.6's
the crane cam runs .512 on 1.6's for the exhaust
and it WILL fit in a stock motor
