5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
I have always heard good things about the Anderson Cams and comp cams just depends on the application and what your looking for some live and die by custom cams it's like a color scheme depends on the person what you have and what your trying to do.
Im lookin at different cams, hard to decide which one to go with. What are some comes that yall have used and do u like the outcome?
well, i for one know squat about cams for the most part so just to help you out though, please list your mods done to the car, and your intentions, what you want from the car (will it be supercharged, nitrous, turbo'd, you just want that lumpy idle saying "hey i gotta a aftermarket cam!")
so some of the more wiser 5.0 guys can easliy answer the question.
It really depends on the modifications you already have on the car and what you plan to do with it, will it be a daily driver or a drag car? Different cams for different applications.
The camshaft is the "brain" of the engine.......... but it's not the "one and only" component that will define performance and/or driveability.... reason why you'll see people using "x or y" cam making 11's, high 10's...... and others using the same cam running 13's, high 12's.....
aight this car is a car that i just drive on the weekends n do stuff wit my car club. So i just want a car that has enough power to do what i want when i want. Not too much of a average car wit mods but a lil more than others. i want people to be able to know i got some power behind my motor. so as far as the idle i want people to know i have a aftermarket cam
I like the F303 cam, hotter than the E303, and still passes smog. You might run into clearance problems if you go with the X303. Most likely have to run straight 1.6 rockers with F303.

..then you want to swap, cam, heads and decent intake...have full exhaust, cai, gears and maybe pullies and then you'll have a decent runner
