Also, when you get the injectors, you'll need to make sure you get an MAF that's calibrated for 24# injectors.

I assume you aren't going to run stock valve springs with this cam .... right? Also, have you had your pistons notched for valve clearance? Pretty aggressive cam for the street, hope you like a choppy idle. Putting it another way. Ford discribes the E cam as a good idle. I personally think its a little choppy, but just about right for the street in my opinion. They discribe the X cam as having a fair idle. In other words a ***** out race cam, which doesn't start making power until 3500 RPM. A cam like that will be worthless without heads, intake and fuel to match. Good Luck.
My 302 has an x303 & still has stock pistons. No notching was required.
