i installed a crane cams camshaft (same specs as an e303) on my stock 50 i believe the engine is off an f150 or a non H.O. motor (didnt know this till after i bought the engine) my car misfires and has no power i tried the 13726548 firing order as in H.O. motors and cas gets even worst than with the 15426378 order has anybody had this problem before? do i need to replace my engine for an H.O. in order for this cam to work? any help would be greatlly apreciated!!

Well if you put an e cam in it then it is now the HO firing order 13726548 counterclockwise.
Your timing is probably just way out in left field.

What year and what model car? I assume a fox Mustang? Did it run before you swapped out the cam?
