So a cammer conversion added little, except cost and uniqueness. they found no noticeable power difference.
I checked out the ebay link because I thought it might be that engine. The all steel composition of these make it a weight adder too. More weight and no signicant increase in HP. I thought it was neat when Ford did it, but for me this leaves a lot to be desired.
I'm still hoping to find that Tunnelport 302 that was on there a couple months ago...now that is something of interest. Other than the head and intake castings the tunnelport heads used most production parts. The rockers were Y-block items.

My engine builder actually has a set of tunnelport 302 heads laying around. I was surprised to see them, as I never knew that Ford made such a thing until I literally tripped over them.
