I talked to my tuner about cams and heads he told me that when u buy cams for these cars u have to buy one cam at a time and i thought that sounded wrong because cams are already like $700 or $800 so is this correct?

LOL thats what i said and he kept arguing with me. And then i asked him how many times has he ordered them for a car like mine and he said plenty of times so then it made me think that maybe he is tryin to screw people out of their money and most of all tryin to screw me. so thanks for the info cuz i thought that they did come as a set.

your tuner isn't crazy .... more like a crook thats trying to con you of money by charging you double for cams by exploiting your lack-of mechanical car stuff knowledge.... but little does he know your member on AFM.... we gotcha covered on here!
tell him to stick a finger up you know where and get a different tuner and shop asap.

My Mustang is finished. Just talked with my tuner today and he said he Dynod the car on a Mustang Dyno. it came to 355RWHP and 340Trq.
But, Arent Mustang Dynos off by like 10HP compaied to a Dyno Jet Dyno?
B/c im sure if i threw it on a Dyno Jet Dyno in my NJ area id see about 360-370RWP. Atleast thats what my uddy said with the Dyno Jet Dyno he has in his Shop. Just wondering if thats a True Statemant.
Ill be picking the car up this Saturday. So ill let you all know what it feels like and if i can get to the track sometime ill let u kno some #s.

An MD chassis dyno is about 6% lower. I'm a little disappointed in those TQ numbers.
