RE: heads intake cam ??? in need of info
^^^opinions vary greatly as the sands of the sea on that one.......but really a cam in itself really won't give you the power you may seek without decent heads to compliment it along with an intake...a decent bang for the buck are gt-40 heads, gt-40 intake and as for a cam?? a comp xe 270 is okay for an ots cam but really there are alot of factors to consider with a cam swap...like do you have emissions???

letter cams are old technology and a gt-40 set up done right and tuned right with all supporting mods such as exhaust and proper valvetrain parts can produce 260-270 rwhp and an untuned trickflow h/c/i from summit usually comes in at or around there..maybe a little more......but for emissions an e-cam will work and other brands that have similar specs as an e are decent choices too

Will that Comp XE 270 cam work on a stock short block? I am looking into getting an 89 GT and I was wanting to mod it a little with out spending a butt load of cash on it.

................for a daily driver if its an alphabet cam then a f cam if its not a dd then i would do an x cam.
