[QUOTE="hasty, post: 12657435, member: 145830"] I hate to say it, but I was going to get in touch with Rob Denewith, the developer for the Cobra Jet programs and ask a few question, but found out he wasn't among the living anymore. Sad story, but I digress... It seems like the Cobra jet has use of variable timing because the idle quality sounds pretty good. I wouldn't think they would idle as well as they do if the cams were locked in place at max high-rpm performance. At this point, everyone has indicated they would be OK (but you know how that can go lol) I'd certainly be interested in your conclusions from your clay testing. (By the way, Rob said that they swept the cams at various positions to determine the best cam advance/retard curves, so that would indicate to me that they definitely have the phasers operational on the Cobra jet cars) It seemed like Ford only advised locking the cams if you were running a box that doesn't allow cam timing changes (like a current model FAST) [/QUOTE]
