After installing the cams my car gets better gas mileage on the highway but worse in the city. After two weeks of mixed driving the average is the same as it was before the cams, 19.5.

That's great!

I have a feeling you could gain some by getting a good dyno tune unless you're very lucky and your bama tune just happened to be right on the money. It happens but hard to do with email tunes. Bama rocks though!

ya idk what to do atleast if i go comp i get a free tune update and ownt haveto worry about it but i like the FRPP gain better since it dont loose bottom end like comp does.

I had a local tuner run it on his dyno and he said he could help it a little but it wouldn't be worth the cost of a dyno tune to change anything at this point. He said the a/f was pretty much straight all the way accross with the exception of one small bobble.

Hey scremn i guess il order the FRPP CAms
WHat should i get to go along with the cams? plz list the stuff

SirKnightTG

Check out Hammeron's sticky. He mentions everything you need like the two tools, two cam phaser bolts (Brenspeed has them) and I don't remember if hammeron mentioned it, but you should replace the cam cover gaskets. Always a good idea to replace gaskets when taking something off. Don't want a leak.

Awesome.

Yeah, I think the part#'s are listed in the sticky above. I went ahead and put new gaskets on my valve covers but there was nothing wrong with the one's I took off. They were $25 for the pair and since I had them I went ahead and changed them. You'll need the cam phaser bolts and some black rtv sealant for a couple spots on the valve cover gaskets. This is best price I found on the cams and shipping was $13 and took about 2 days to get them.. http://www.buyfordracing.com/shop/pr...cPath=11_12_43

do i need phase limiters, and where do i get phase bolts ? Brenspeed?

SirKnightTG

You don't need limiters with Hot Rods, only cams from Comp Cams need those.

You can get the bolts from Brenspeed or Ford.
