Supersixmotorsports is the only place that I would go.......

A cam will add hp, and make your car sound better......

Cam is a cam, doesn't matter where you get it from just who specs it...

And yes you will feel an increase in horsepower, and an idle that will make 2v gt owners jealous

All right, I've heard your car ssstang and I am impressed.
I feel a summer project coming along.
What is a cam going to cost? What should I be looking for on SSM?

After adding cams, how is the gas mileage going to be. Any change in reliability?
Thanks. (sorry for the hijack burton)

Price depends on what you go with [new/regrind] , if you need valve springs, push rods, etc.

Gas mileage you might lose 1-2mpg, right foot is the main controller in this case.
