Ross Converse suggested using a Mustang cam to gain some top end and kill a bit of torque. Its more of a driver than a Hot Rod so I decided to keep the Explorer cam in it. It pulls good but smooth. Problem is our 2009 Toyota Avalon (14.9 1/4 mile) would likely clean its clock. Then again I have yet to burry the throttle on it. Waiting for all the bugs to get worked out.
I am kicking myself just a little on not doing the cam swap. It would sound a bit meaner and go better, ah well, I am in no hurry.
My tuner is now out of business so a cam swap could mean paying someone for a computer tune. Yet to find an exhaust tip, it will get brought out past the bumper. Thanks WYK.
