Was just wondering if anyone has done the Ford GT cam swap on their Shelby yet? IF so, how is the performance gain. I've never dug into a modular engine yet, but this swap looks faily easy for a backyard mechanic.

The cam used to be the cheapest HP upgrade you could do for a pushrod engine. I know the GT make 50 more horse than the Shelby, is that because of the cams and a tune only?

While the Ford GT and Shelby GT500 cams are a bit different, it is the different supercharger used on the Ford GT that is responsible for most of the hp difference.
