Cobra Intake

Hi, I am a brand new member. I own a 1994 F-150 4x4 with a 302 and E4OD. The truck has a Cobra upper and lower intake on it (offset circular ports). The truck runs great at high RPM and with the throttle in the floor, however I would like more low end power. It has a stock cam and heads. The truck also has a 3.55 gear. What would be the most bang for the buck? Is it worth tampering with the motor or should I just stick a 4.10 in the rear. Any other suggestions on making the most of the Cobra Intake?

That High RPM power really doesn't have much to do with the intake, but more to do with the high revving 302.

Switching to a 4.10 gear will bring your RPMs up at lower speeds. There really isn't anything else you could do short of recamming, or stuffing a W in there.

Thanks for the response, what is a good low end cam for a 302. It seems most of them are for higher RPMS.
Thanks
