    Yeah But I was looking at the specs and Comp says it'll work with stock exhaust. My main thing is I'm really looking for a choppy idle. Oh and I am going to adjustable rockers.

    Denny thanks for your input! I'm glad I found this site! The info I'm learning is great. I've talked to a couple of others and they've said pretty much the same thing. I was hoping to get opinion of as many ford guys I could just to make sure I'm going to the best setup for my 390. With this knowledge I will prob go with the Comp Cam 265DEH Hydraulic Cam the the .484-.510 lift unless I find something slightly above that to get to the .517 intake lift.

    thanks again for the help! -Danny
