not too bad really. especially considering the tool you need for the timing chain can run upwards of $150.


rough number guesses here:
$700 cams
$300 labor
$250 tune/dyno
can't wait to see what RWHP gains you see.

Not bad at all you also got to have the valve spring compresser which is another 150 or so

oh yeah, forgot about that. I've been considering the Cams on my Mustang, but after reading the write-ups for the install, I'm not really comfy with the idea of "walking" the cams off the head and doing a backyard DIY timing chain job. I'll probably pay the local Ford house for the install.



sucks I have to wait until August to hear your results. make sure you have them posted up so I can see them when I get back
