Any 2v cam... Camera for a lightning cams for a 96-98 gt 99-04 gt ... Depends on what you want though... Torque? Horsepower? Both?... I don't know about you... But ima do a 5.4 2v swap and then cam it out...

Ive been searching hard core lately for 4.6 2v stuff... hard to come by. Seems ModMax has decent prices on 4.6 2v cams. About 500ish for the ones i wanted

You wouldnt happen to have a rough estimate of power that some make... I know some will make more torque and some will make more hp. 20-30 hp increase im hoping?

If you go on comp cams website and click on products then hit the search by engine function they give you a break down of the cams that will go in your 4.6 from a stock replacment up to a major upgraded cam and whether you would need valve springs and the fixins to go with it.

You'll want a torque cam the ones for the mustang you won't like in a truck... Modular head shop makes a torquer cam for heavy cars and trucks it'll be the one I put in when I do the 5.4 2v swap

Yeah, i need to look at a bunch of cams and decided. I know i want some with a noticable idle, but not have to put a converter in but also have more torque
