Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 11y 10m 23d Posted 16/03/14 08:29 AM Share Posted 16/03/14 08:29 AM I've been wondering why none of the upgrades on the 5.0L's Involve cams. Surely if more aggressive cams can be put in you can make the most out of that already powerful motor?Would like to know more info, is it simply because the engine can just make good power without an upgrade and nobody ever saw the need?Or is it very difficult to make aftermarket or modified cams for this motor? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit like cams in the 5.4, they dont seem to make much power but f*ck they sound good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be done but linking ecu to control the cams is the issue. So im lead to believe. They do a thing called Ghost cams in the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
