I'm doing a motor swap to a 351 in my 88. the engine is stock but I'm going through it. I'm not sure what size cam I want, I dont want radical but I do want everyone to know its running. I will be running a performer intake and 4 barrel carb. If anyone has any Ideas they would be appreciated, and also I need a set of headers and am not sure what to get or where to get them, but I'm pretty sure they make them for this swap. I'd even settle for a used set if anyone has some that are in good shape. Thanks a bunch

call ed curtis for the cam and everyone makes the headers theyre not a big problem at all

Hooker(and others) makes headers for this swap, but make sure you know which heads you'll be using before ordering. If you're planning for stock heads, ported or not, 1 5/8" headers will do.

As for the cam, look into something that works well, but doesn't cost $300 to perform NO better than many "off the shelf" cams that cost half that much. Not to point and shoot at Ed, but seriously, this isn't an all out race car, and Ed's cams don't necessarily outperform those that are. A TFS-51402001 would likely do very well in a daily driven 351W powered car, and it's only $150.
