It depends on the weather. If it's 260 with SAE correction, it could be actually putting down 280+ if it's cold outside. I have trapped 105 with only 280rwhp (SAE).

A published comparison ...

Crzypny's comparison ...
94 GT baseline with the following mods:
B303 Cam MDS Coil FMS Shorty Headers O/R H-pipe Flowmaster 1 chambers 213 HP | 277 TQ _________________ TFS kit minus cam with following mods Heads: Twisted Wedge Cam: B303 Cam Intake: TFS Street Rockers: 1.6 TFS Rollers TB: 75mm MAF: 90mm CAI: AFM 4" Powerpipe Ignition: MSD 6A | MSD Coil Exhaust: FRPP Shorties | Prochamber | Mac Catback EEC: SCT Chip Gears: 3.73 268 HP | 305 TQ That's a net gain of 55 peak HP without the benefit of a cam upgrade. |

When you put it in perspective like that...sounds about right. I think a cam change is next on the list. Because it's about the same cost as a set of good rockers, which you already have on there.

rockers would be a whole lot easier to change vs a cam swap. Besides, while the 'b' cam is a old design it is still a good cam. I proved that with my first combo on the cobra
