Comparison between my Cam only LS1 and my old Mustang 347 Just thought this might be interesting.
TA -
LS6 Intake stock
Cam only - Vindicator - .608/.598 240/244 110+4
1 3/4 LT headers
Ypipe Flowmaster merge
Flowmaster catback (bigger series mufflers)
Bo White TB
Gran MAS
42lb inj.
TR55 plugs
Chumma tune
Mustang - 347 - H/C/I
N-113 cam @.50 .576/.576 270/278 108
AFR 205 heads box stock 308/231 cfm at .600
Victor JR intak port matched
BG 750 carb
CHP 347 rotating assembly
Comp 1.6 rockers
MSD 6al and blaster coil
MAc 1 3/4 LT headers
3 inch powerchamber hpipe
3 inch Mac dumped exhaust
Both cars dynoed through manual trannies and 8.8's (the same 8.8 lol) and 410 gears.

Just thought it was a cool comparison, carb vs EFI, Ford vs GM. Compression on the 347 was 11:1. Wonder if it was the Ford cam or the carb on the Ford that cost all that torque. The Ford carb was never tuned.

Hey Bob. I am trying to track down another ticket. I waited too long...
As for the TA smashing the stang, the stang went 11.1 @ 122mph. with a C4 and a 2500 stall convertor on stock suspension. Pretty much a matter of weight and softer suspension.

That 5.0 cam is huge. Would have picked up bottom end with a cam sized like the LS cam, though not sure how much may be lost on the top end.
I had a cam that was 272 at .050 with .620 lift 104 LS and it didnt want to get out of its own way until 4500 in a 306 Ford. Had a 5K convertor and 5.14's. Shifted at 8700rpm. What a ride that was in the 2100lb 'stang it was in.
Oh, lack of carb tuning can hurt big time.

That's a great comparison. I would imagine the Stang was much much lighter and would pull the TA, maybe not so much down below 4000-4500 or so where the TA's making all of that torque, but above that, that Stang must fly!
X2 on the flycutting question. I'll do a search as well because I think I remember you posting when you installed that cam.

On the Stangs cam...is that 270/278 at .050 or advertised?? If thats at .050 thats a big sum bitch. I cant beleive it ran good with only a 2500 stall! Both sick fast cars.
