Getting ready to yank the motor on my Cobra to rebuild its knocking bottom end. Depending on the cost of the rebuild, there's a pretty good chance I'm dropping a set of cams in.
Right now my combination is stock B heads, a short runner intake with a raised floor, Ford racing shorties, IMRC deletes, and a cold air intake.
My head's were rebuilt about 50,000 mi ago, so if I got the 106200's I would not have to upgrade valve springs which would be nice.
But from my research, it sounds like a B head with a short runner would be much happier with the 106400's.
This motor is going to be coming out and coming apart again at some point, so there is a chance depending on money, that I'll be installing the cams straight up without degreeing (OEM gears). Then degreeing them later when the motor comes apart again and I can afford adjustable timing gear and a Comp degree kit.
If it turns out that I can just re-ring and re-bearing my motor with stock rods and pistons, I'll definitely be jumping on a set of 106400's and springs.
Any input would be awesome, I like to make sure I have all my ducks in a row before I go ordering almost $2,000 worth of cam's haha.
I'm also not opposed to the used market, it's just harder to find exactly what I want used.
