Cam for gt40p heads???
ok, i'll first say that i did a search and could not find enough to solidify an answer, so here goes...
i got gt40p heads with stainless steel valves and 1.6 ratio. I got the p/p typhoon intake. I'm about to convert it to mass air so that i can get a better cam(it just makes sense). I'm debating on cams at the moment, and i'm on a budget as well(getting married and house hunting). I'm looking at the b303, e303, and the TFS stage 1 cam. Smog is not an issue(no emissions north of atlanta, yay). I thought i found a crane that would work but don't remember the number. I'm looking to get the best amount of hp for the money with one of those. any help here??? oh yeah, its a 5spd.

TFS isnt a bad cam.... what are your long term goals... if all u want is a h/c/i on a mild 302 then u have a lotta choices.... i wouldnt get an alphabet cam... there alittle outta date... i mean there are certain cases were they are good but u can find better for the same about of money.... comp cams has some nice cams as well as steeda so id check both of those out as well... if u werent on a budget id say get a custom cam but they are costly

I have a comp xe270hr-14. Its very computer friendly, has a nice lope and even works with speed density. Theres a guy on corral.net making 315 at the wheels with ported gt40p's, ported cobra intake and this cam.

I"m runnin a TFS stage1 cam with P heads and i like it alot. It took awhile for the computer to get used to it but finally did. If i wouldof gotten it tuned right away ( still need to ) it wouldof been alot better from the get go, but all in all i like it. And it was a great price.
