Let me know how you like it. Im debating between e303 and the tfs1 cams. I have Cobra intake and GT40 heads with a little port work. Stock rockers and bolt ons. Idk if it matters but I got some 3.73s too. Let me know what you think.

Im leaning towards the tfs1. Only thing is that on summit it say not computer controlled compatible so that kinda worries me cause I dont know what that means

With your mild set up you will not see a difference.
Find the best priced one and go for it.

I like the stage 1 cam. Good idle and good low to mid-range power.

Tfs-1 all the way. Depending on your application of course...I feel the tfs cam has better exhaust characteristics then the e cam..seems a stockish ford motor would benefit more from that (better blower cam too IMHO).

Not true. I was running it and the idle was fine. Had a slight lope to it

Yea I dont want it too chunky, just a nice idle and a little lope. Is it a good mid to top end cam, or whats its rpm ranges compared to an e cam?

About either one of these cams idling shitty ive ran both cams plenty of times and have no problem with idleing, problems with that are from the person working on it! As far as witch one you should go with theyre both good cams but the tfs cam has more exhaust duration and thats a plus and also its a split duration cam witch favors the exhaust, (where fords have problems) so i would run with the tfs cam if not throw some 1.7's on the exhaust if you run the e-cam. Also advance the e-cam 4 degrees if you choose that one.
