dime i kno that ford says its not and it says that on the site but like wit the 86 block they were wrong. there are a few members taht are runnin the e cam on sd and have little problem wit it.
really wanna argue about sd?[8D] lol im tellin ya, that E cam IS NOT sd compatable, no im not going off of what ford says, im going off of countless other accounds that ive seen/heard of.

dont get me wrong, the e cam is a good cam, but just isnt for sd...

im willing to bet, if u either change ur cam to another one(there are options that are good) or swap to maf itll fix, or atleast make your problem alot better

I don't know, low end torque is almost too high, in order to drive it I have to start out in second gear. And when taking it home I got on a stretch to get her up to speed and she bogged down just over 100 mph. Also if your driving and punch it, it bogs down and backfires every once in awhile. This was happening before and after the TPS was switched out so I don'd think it had anything to do with that.

Well I don't understand because if you go to BBK's website at their throttle bodies it says it includes a TPS with the purchase.

its the cam alright you should switch out to a sd friendly cam and
that will fix your problem the e cam and sd dont go well together

or you can also convert to maf but i think putting a sd cam
is alot cheaper

I don't know, I think since down the line I'll want to do more sd unfriendly mods, I just want to get the MAF converted and get it done and over with.

Convert that bitch to MAF, or go get it tuned and keep the SD.
