CAN I REALLY ADD 30 HP, 40 HP OR 50 HP FROM A CAM SWAP ON MY 5.0L FORD? HOW WELL DOES A CAM SWAP WORK ON STOCK 5.0L HEADS? DOES A CAM UPGRADE WORK BETTER WITH ALUMINUM HEADS? WHAT INTAKE SHOULD I USE WITH MY CAM UPGRADE? HOW MUCH IS A CAM SWAP WORTH ON A MILD 302? HOW MUCH POWER IS A CAM SWAP WORTH ON A WILD 302? CAN I USE THE SAME CAM ON A CARBURETED AND FUEL INJECTED 5.0L? WILL I LOSE LOW SPEED TORQUE WITH A CAM UPGRADE? CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO WHERE I COMPARED THE STOCK 5.0L H.O.
