I was wondering what the best cams are optional for 98 n/a cobra or just leave stock?
Comp and crower would be a great option.
there are no cams that make big power with B heads and stock springs.Camshafts that make big power and don't require valve springs would be what i would go with and a set of 4.30s.
Why would you say this? Why not ? Comp and crower are proven to provide good gains. I know on the 03-04 c heads but not sure about these Cobras though.

Keeping the stock B head cams and porting the C heads would net you how much HP? Also as fas as bang for the buck, I could use all the B head valves, springs, ect on the C heads? Of course I would also need the 99-01 cobra intake?
From what I've gathered, B cams plus C heads/intake nets you about 15-20 rwhp over just the heads alone. As far as I am aware, there is nothing to prevent you swapping the B head "guts" into a bare C head along with your B cams. Unported C top end swap seems to pick up 20-30 rwhp depending on the heads. I'll let more versed individuals chime in on the porting gains, I havent dug that deep.
Thanks nomoretickets, because this is the combo I am leaning to. I'm currently at 300Hp and 290Tq. So from what you gather it should be 300+ between 50-60Hp?

A c head swap with 96-98 intake cams will add about 35hp to a stock engine and a ton of midrange power.Thanks nomoretickets, because this is the combo I am leaning to. I'm currently at 300Hp and 290Tq. So from what you gather it should be 300+ between 50-60Hp?

Hey I’m new here and to my 98 cobra. Really want to do a n/a build and make decent power. Any advise on where to start? Car has 138,000 and I want to rebuild lower in and want cams. Any advise would be appreciated greatlythere is nothing good about B heads. 96-98 Cobra intake cams though can add about 10hp to a Mach 1.
Porting adds little power.
