94 mazda b3000 v8 swap
i an new here and am plannig a v8 swap in the near future i have purchased a 96 exolorer and i believe from whati have read that you are the craziest bunch of gearheads on the net . ihave seen much of what has been done on this forum and am fired up about this project . i would appreciate all of the help i can get

none over stock . I have debated doing a cam and it seems that everyone has an opinion on how to go about it but I have determined to go with the stock explo cam for now . I am mainly concerned with getting this puppy in place and wired up. after that I can always build a 331 or 347 and stick in there

A cam isn't a bad idea. The expo cam leaves a little bit to desire. Even a mustang HO cam would be an improvement if you can find one, they are very stout. One thing to watch for with an aftermarket cam is the LSA, look for something high like 114 or maybe even 112.Any thing lower and the explorer pcm starts to have alot of trouble.

I would avoid the alphabet cams. They are old technology and single plane cams. A more modern dual plane cam is a much better performer all around. I really like what comp cams offers, and you can email their tech support for a personal cam recommendation. That have alot of good HO replacement cams that perform well without crazy amounts of lift and duration.

i have ordered 2 left side mustang mounts and will have them in the morn . i looked up some l,l headers on there website and they wanted like 400 for them. another issue is if i can use the ex, oil pan i will also be able to use the stock timing chain cover. one less thing to by. most of the threads i have read deal with newer conversions, i guess i should have done this 10 years ago and everyone would still be discussing those model years
