[QUOTE]Originally posted by Quick 88LX: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by 4.6 EATIN GM'S: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Quick 88LX: [qb] What you need to do is simple: Contact Ford Motorsports and ask them what they recommend. Your primary go fast part will remain Ford (heads) so the best thing to do is to talk to the guys who built that part and see what success they've had with various cam and intake combos. They will give you excellent advice since it's their product you're using. Quick example: During one of my previous builds, a few years back, I just couldn't seem to nail down the perfect cam. So, I contacted my top three choices; Ford, Anderson FM, and TrickFlow. They all replied to my questions, even complimented one anothers products, while outlining the drawbacks/advantages of using each one of their cams instead of someone elses. In the end, and a dozen e-mails later, Trickflow suited MY combo best and ended up getting me into the high 12's with off the shelf parts and no fine tuning whatsoever... I hadn't even upgraded my fuel or electronics yet! Bottom line: The TrickFlow cam complimented MY parts best and made my little pony a sweet runner. Do a little legwork on the front end and enjoy a much better performing combination on the back end. I have done this on every build since and I've enjoyed outstanding results. My .02 for the day :patriot: [/qb][/QUOTE]sup nick? long time no see!what u been up too, and do u still have the fox? [/qb][/QUOTE]Chris, whattup bro. I have been gone for a while, I know. I am out here in Okinawa, you know, doing my Marine Corps thing. I left the 88 back in the States at my folks house so I haven't been able to play with it for about a year now. However, I left that beast in prime condition and it was running HARD. I never got it up to Sac before I left but after getting it tuned/dialed in, it was putting down a little over 340rwhp/355rwtq in that little 302. I ran a 12.8 before I ripped it apart again and it was probably making close to 300 at the wheels back then. With the suspension I have, I am looking for 12 flat... mid/high 11's on juice. I saw the numbers your stang put down. Damn impressive. That ride was sick when you took me for a ride waaaay back when so I can't wait to see that thing again someday. When are you going to get some track time in that beast? [/QB][/QUOTE]
