A sign up campaign would be good, I know that I would absolutley hate to install a stock camshaft, or any cam that I didn't think was best suited to my application. Even if we all don't need a cam right at the moment, it would still be worth it to purchase a core or two---and in my case 4 or more. I have not seen an MEL in person yet, but looking at the pics, the size of the ports look like they could have a lot more potential than a stock cam.
Has anyone done any flow testing to see the intake to exhaust flow ratio? Like most Fords, I would anticipate that these engines can benefit from a little more exhaust duration, which would call for a dual pattern camshaft.
Another thought on the subject is even though most people with Lincolns and big Mercs wouldn't want a rumpity-rump camshaft, I think that the MEL would make a very interesting engine to install in a T-bucket---(a lot better choice than a Chevy 350 I might add). I think these people would want a lopey cam, which would make it good to have some blank cam cores ready to go.
