1987 ford f150 with 3.55 gears

this is going to be my tow / play vehicle

thanks craig

thought i should add that i want a ft juice cam for this

thanks craig

I personally like the CompCams X4262H grind; there are several which will work well.

I really liked that cam too.

thanks i'll look into it and see. Are there any head mod's needed?

It would be best to have better valve springs for high performance but, that is not necessary for that cam to be used.

I used the comp 924-16 springs but I think that cam calls for 926-16 springs. I also bought 7* retainers and locks.

one more newbie question. will a cam of 230 @ o.50 be ok someone on the site has offered it to me. it's a comcams 274 extreme energy

It would run but at that point i would deffonately be swaping valve springs and retainers. At the very least springs for the sake of your valves.
