I know these topics have been covered before but I need to know for sure in combination...
I already have I/H/E installed on my 2.0L beta1. I also have a second IM in my garage waiting for my 4.6L Mustang TB to be shipped to port match it to 65mm (I think i will give it try try, because nobody else will).
I can get a set of 264° cams for cheap and want to add 1.8L pistons.
These pistons should rise compression to nearly 11:1 right?
Do you suggest to add an smt6 to this setup or should I wait with the smt6 until I ported and polished my head.
What about adjustable cam gears? My local speedshop told my to install it with the 264° cams. Do I really need more overlap or do these cam gears have any othe benefit I don't know about?

For the cams, the gears could help get the most power out of them. However, with the camshafts and the slightly higher compression, you will need the SMT-6. Without it the car probably wouldn't run, or would run very very poorly.

Hmm, I think it would be difficult to adjust intake cam gear spocket(if it's possible to installe the gear spocket). You will need to take off valve cover.

Piggybacks are easy... just getting to the ECU and splicing the wires (I think they are spliced on most cars, least ones I've seen) are the hard parts.

thanks its just like 5 of the wires or so and is it easy to find the right ones?
Basically. Really 90% of the time its just tearing the car apart to get to the ECU that manufacturers like to hide in all the worst places.
