No cams or intake?

Id say thats pretty good. 295rwhp is pretty freaking nice for a stock head/cammed car.

Dont get LT's your car will gain very little if any HP from them. And for that money, you could get yourself some nice comp 270's or equivalent cams and gain lots of power. That, a dyno tune and some 4.10's and you'll have a very fun car.

those are good numbers, also how do you like the xpipe sound with the flowmasters? Did you like the sound right away, or did it take getting use to it and hows the drone?

Well i got used to the drone but im looking to change the flowmaster with some loudmouth.Yes the numbers i gave you are correct and im looking to upgrade the cams now glittle 75 you mentioned 270 comp cams im this close to buying one but a friend of mine keeps saying that those cam dont work. Whats your take on those cams? Also i know that there at least three stage cams correct me if im wrong, i know the obvious reason its to go with the first stage but which works better with stock heads?

On a side note the other day a guy asked if my car had flat top pistons which i really dont know cause i bought the car from a guy in PR. Is there anyway to really know if you got flat tops or does car even have flat tops with those heads without taking apart the heads?( im noob at mustang lol )

If its a stock NPI bottom car...its around a 9cc dish if I remember correctly.

If you are looking at a stage 2 cam (ie 230s duration@.050) you NEED to degree them and check PTV clearance. If not...im pretty sure without a doubt you will have PTV contact.
