Come on man you know that sound is the #1 factor in picking a cam.

Any other opinions on this?

A TFS1 has almost the EXACT same specs as an E cam - so I don't see much difference. It may be an older cam but that makes the TFS1 an old cam under a new name.

I have a XE274HR Comp Cam in my 347, with 112 LSA very decent streetability. Some even sugested a XE282HR but it does nice with .555 in / .565 lift.

ford F303 is a great cam, i put one in my 88gt and it just pers, the lope isn't extreme by any means but it has a nice mild idle that sounds absolutley amazing..i also match ported and polished my heads and intake, and 10.5:1 forged pistons and rings for some heavy nitrous. these simple mods alone give the car a deceptively powerful engine while still maintaining good driveability....i believe
f303 has .510 of .512 lift....it really not that much, its just enough to notice a slight difference in idle lope,if you really want a good cam this is the one

I would do the b 303 cam w/ 1.7 rockers or the f303 cam. They will both get through the sniffer here in md. The b 303 will definitly have better low end though and probably be better for stock head intake car. The b303 always makes better power then the e303 even with 1.6 rockers.

True, the b303 cam is good with a stockish motor, but if you plan on moddifiying other things in the future you might want to look into something. Alot of guys get the b303 just for the sound
