here in a few weeks im going to be pulling the motor. im not boreing it out at all. im just going to up the comp to about 9:1 or so. my questions are what are some good cam and head combos? id like a cam that has a decent lope. nothing to insane but something fun. the car is a DD . Im only wanting to push about 350-400hp. thanks guys

afr's 165's or trick flow....... i heard the high rev cam from andersons isnt bad... thats the one im thinking about getting

91hatchgt

Would be nice to know what year, model, tranny, etc.. Oh and the stock CR on a 5.0 is 9.0:1 so maybe you made a typo, or didn't know the stock CR??

ive got an 89 gt with a 5 speed. i thought the 5.0s had 8.5:1. what do you all suggest for the comp inc? after i do the motor im going to throw some 3.73 in along with some 17x9. car is basically stock besides exhaust.

go with some trick flow heads and a xtreme energy cam by comp cams.224 232 duration at .050,
.555 .565 , l.s.a 112. with a cobra u/l intake and notched pistons and you will be moving

You gotta have AFR heads, don't think trick flow will get you there, maybe close. I would recommened doing a stroker 331 or 347 with AFR 185 heads, then your on you way

i hadnt made up my mind about intake yet. ill most likely do afr heads. i was hoping not to bore it. just uping the compression. a few years back i help my dad build a vette and it made 400hpat the wheels off just motor but it had a wicked cam in it. i was hoping to build a motor that wasnt quite as radical. if it comes down to it i can deal with a lopey cam. i at least want something with some pop. what do you all think?
