Default CAM for a 95 cobra?

I need help from you guys. I was told by many people that a cam would do a major difference to my car's performance. Now I need help choosing which one to use. I've been looking at the 5.0 magazing i get at home, and they have a couple of cams to choose from, i dont know the difference between each one of them, can anyone recommend one?

I've heard of 94-95 Cobra guys going with Crane 2030 cams...I think a custom cam is the best way to get the most out of your set-up...

custom cam for a avg driver car is just plain silly....now for a nos or s/c with a ton of boost yes.....thier is so many cams out now that it shouldn't be a problem.......a 490/513 cam will work good

Good point......94-95 computers need a chip or tweecer/pms tune...I've heard the stock computers are thrown outta whack with a cam swap

I installed the FMS B303 cam in my '94 Cobra and got nice results. The idle wasn't that great but a custom chip took care of that and got me 27 more HP.
