    Im rebuilding a 351W and ive been really doubting what i want to do with my engine. Hydraulic roller cam is better but more expensive and i have to change some other parts to. Are flat tappet cams really so bad? because it would save a lot of headache and a quite some money to put a flat tappet...

    Is there a camshaft kit that I can buy for my 3valve without the cnc ported heads or are they necessary? And can I also boost while being cammed and fbo because I saw some guys on YouTube did it with their 3 valve and I didn't know you could add boost while also having bolt ons.

    We got new cams for our 2005 4.6 3V (100K miles on it), and it ran great for 200+ miles, then a rocker broke, and a spring came loose. Brenspeed says the cam is 100% compatible (nothing special required) and not the cause of the problem. I sure hope they are right. At the time code reader...

    I just want to make sure I understand this...the difference between the two firing orders is CAM dependent, and the same CRANK work with BOTH firing orders???

    I'm trying to rebuild the Holley 1940 carburetor that I have for my '68 mustang. My car has a 250 engine from a '71 mustang. I think I have most of the parts I need to rebuild the carburetor, however, I'm missing the fast idle cam and I can't seem to find any online or any store. Does anyone...

    I have recently acquired a 1968 302 engine originally off of a Galixy. It had a 2 barrel intake but i removed that to put a four barrel intake on. I am wondering what some cheap and easy things to do are, to add power to the engine. I would like to invest in a cam and heads but I'm not really...

My question is how do i know what cam, and rocker ratio should i go with or how do i figure it out?? Im not too good with this whole...

    Good Evening Fellow AFM geniuses, Well, my engine has been years in the making, time... money... you know the normal issues. But, here i am, almost done and ready to be rolling on the street and strip. My C6Z was a fun toy but I'm back to Fords. My question is, what length pushrods should i be...

    I am building a 5.0 engine over the winter with hopes to drop it into a fox over the summer. I will be grabbing a 5.0 from the junkyard after great inspection, re-ring the bottom end but leave it stock. Doing the classic h/c/i on top. Obviously I am on a budget and my goals are a street car...

    Hey guys, new here. I've got a 1972 351 cleveland h-code block with an edelbrock rpm manifold and 600cfm carb. I was driving down the street the other day and the timing belt slipped and I bent a valve, so I'm going to partially rebuild the engine this weekend. I thought I might as well upgrade...

    I'm new to this site and was wondering if anybody had some suggestions as to what type of heads i should pick up for my 1994 Mustang 5.0. I just ran a 12.69 @ 110 with a 1.81 60 foot. I have a cobra intake, e303 cam, cai, 70mm throttle body, bbk shorty headers, straight pipes, 3.73 gears, and a...

    Hey guys, So I have some of the basic bolt-ons done (check my profile) and I am currently getting started on suspension parts (subframe connectors, upper/lower arms, etc, all piling up in my garage as we speak) but I am always looking to upgrade power. I want to do cams next but was wondering a...

    There aren't many auto performance shops around where I live, so the two shops I came across that are capable of the labor are both asking around $3,200 for the install of a set of cams on my 02. That number doesn't include the tune, either. Now, I've never installed cams on a motor, but this...

My top pics are....Stock, comp cams xe270hr, f303, and trick flow stage 1. I want something with good performance with an idle...

    Hey all, I was wondering if I could get any insight on a realistic gain from a new cam in a 351w. The engine has a performer intake and 600cfm carb. I have been looking at either the XE250H or the XE262H. The car is a weekend driver and never sees track time, only street. Thanks, Adam

    Hey guys, First post here and would appreciate all the help I can get. I have a 1998 4.6L V8 Mustang GT. It has all of the classic symptoms of a faulty cam shaft position sensor. In fact, that's also what the computer has coded as well. I have heard it is not a hard fix to replace the...
