As others are no doubt going to point out, you might be well served spending a little time looking around in the forums - there is heaps of info about what can be done.

What's prompted me to reply tho is your reference to the EA cam thing - ie. yes I believe that the 3.2L EA had a fairly aggressive cam - Ford evidently trying to get the most out that capacity engine. I actually remember taxi drivers I spoke to at the time complaining about their new EA's being buggers for wheelspin off the line - had to be real careful on the throttle especially in the wet with high diff ratio and torque monster engine.

By the time people were into modding these cars tho - ie. once they had been around long enough to become affordable to young hoons - factory XR6 had been out for several years and aftermarket cams were available from places like Crow and then Wade - so the first line mod was generally an XR6 cam - or for those with bit more cash then a Crow etc. was the go - and of course the starting point couldn't be anything less than a 4.0L - so anything EA was pretty much orphaned.

Altho people noted from factory info etc. that the 3.2 EA technically had a pretty firce looking cam I don't know that too many actually tried using those cams in later cars - nothing off those "little" cars could be any good surely!

The airbox/TB duct out of the MPEFI EA is lower restriction than those fitted to later cars so that's always been an easy must do mod for anyone with EB/ED - Ford for some reason made the engine slightly larger capacity but then used more tame cam and restricted the intake - go figure! - but of course that mod isn't applicable to EF onward.

I also recall a Ford dealer mechanic commenting one day that healthy 3.2L SEFI EA's always surprised him as they often went REAL well compared to EB, ED and EF.

yeah il have another look around i just was after info on more my specific plans as all mods need diffrent requirements

with changing the cam in the EL how do i go about the ECU becouse its set to the stock cam

with a smallish cam, just reset your ecu, it should learn. however a j3 can be tuned to the cam, and also retuned when you modify further and put a larger cam in
