Just curious if these are worth buying to install?

Stick with stock cams or 98 Cobra cams. I've done both Ford GT (GT40) and comp cams and are in the 20-25hp range. If doing as part of a build then yes but cams by itself arent worth it IMO unless you are able to do the work yourself.

GT500 cams are the exact same cams that are in Maraders (and Mach 1, Avaitors and Navigators).

The GT (not GT500) cams will add 1/2 the power than cobra intake cams but they cost more than twice as much.

Properly spec'd cams can add 40rwhp and not kill tq.

How long does it take to put a set of cobra intake cams in start to finish?

I have none right now but next week I will have 6 pair (12 cams) of Ford cams from one an early 4v development programs. I'm unsure of their duration but will have them checked by the end of the weekend.

Awesome, let me know what you think of them or if you come across cobra cams because I would like to get this done this winter. Also what would need done in the tune if this is done?

cobra cams don't require a tune if the car already has one.
