Default Cam?

lean something new every day. didn't know they have better cams. getting ready to pull my motor for a rebuild even know it does not really ,need it, it just needs a rear seal but seen as that's a pain in the rear to start why just just pull it and rebuild it.

norm rebuild for me is at 150,000

well thing about it you haft to pulled the trany, then drop the oil pan and loosed the crank so you dont mess the seal up getting it in. my valve cover gaset needs to be replace. sense im in there mine as well rebuild it you know. so i know haft to mess with it again 2 -3 months down the road.

i dont really have much for engine mods, just an intake. i wanna bore out the TB and get neon or ford injectors but a cam would probably come after those.
