What Type of Cam Should I Go With?

neestangk · July 23rd, 2007, 12:49 AM

Hi everybody, I'm new on the forums. I needed help getting a SMOG LEGAL Cam that will give me a broad power range. My current set-up is a 5.0 stock bottom end with Trick Flow Street Heads/Manifold, full exhaust, cai, 24lb injectors.

I'm not supercharged yet, more worried about passing smog in CA.

I had a Stage II TFS Cam that is not smog legal if anyone is interested

My advice to you is to call up Comp Cams or Lunati or whoever you want and talk to someone in the cam help department. Those people do cams for a living so they know exactly what they are talking about.

check out AndersonFordMotorsports.com ,they can make you a custom grind cam that would be smog legal and work well with a SC.the E-303
is a smog legal cam that works well with boost but the design is a little
dated

You could go for the TFS Stage 1 cam if the engine's staying naturally aspirated. If you're going to supercharge, you could consider the Steeda 19 blower cam.
