I recently had a bad oil leak and a knock on my 1995 f150 xlt. It has the 302 efi. With 200000 miles on it. I've decided to pull the motor and do a low budget rebuild. Trying to do all the labor myself. I am no mechanic but I am very mechanicly inclined. I plan on putting in a new cam because I've believe the knock was coming from a bad lifter. What I was wondering is if there is a better aftermarket cam and valve train for more horsepower that I can put in that would still be smog legal in the state of California. I plan on keeping all the stock intake and exhaust. Does any one have a good suggestion for a cam and valve train?

 

A stock Mustang HO cam is going to be one of the few choices you have, most aftermarket cams will have too much low lift duration to pass a tight sniffer test.
