[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 14337064, member: 35549"] It really depends on your eventual goal. Custom cams would obviously be the best, but they're not cheap. And plenty of people have cleared 600hp with stock cams. Which I think is a win-win. You get the power and keep the part throttle driveability. If you're talking about the aluminum spacer I wouldn't say it's worth it. But I'm not looking for every last horsepower and I had spares that came with the heads I bought. If it's a deal where a part like that is cheaper then going to Ford, I'd get the aftermarket part. If you're planning degreeing the cams then you'll want the adjustable gears. It'll make your life easier. For the parts I tend to look around a lot. Even Amazon carries stuff like that. I ordered a new timing set for our 06 from Amazon. Upgrades are a good idea. Especially the clutch. It's all going to be apart at that point. Might as well put new stuff in. That's what I ended up doing. Depending on how you drive the tranny and halfshafts can last. My stock 3650 lived for a couple years behind a supercharged engine. The funny part is I sold it to a friend with a stock 01 and he killed it. I'd had to agree on the half shafts. Even if it's just stepping up to stock 03/04 units. I blew an 01 half shaft getting on the freeway. So now I have an 01 shaft on the passenger side and an 03 on the driver side. Hopefully that'll change this weekend. I had the service manual on my old computer. Which unforetunately has the blue screeen of death. But I think that manual is available everywhere now. I might have a link with all the torque specs listed. I'll have to double check. [/QUOTE]
