I have a chance to buy oem cams from a 2003 Mach 1. I wanted to know what's the benefits of those cams vs oem marauder cams besides Goin with a blower in the future. Is it even worth buying?

The cams from the Mach 1 are the same as ours. IF you wanted a small cheap upgrade you could search for a set of 96-98 cobra cams, (intakes are different, exhaust cams are the same)

I found a set of cobra cams for 100. Good deal?
To get the full benefit you would need to degree them.
Are they 96-98 Cobra cams? Yes $100 is a good deal. Usually sell for $200-$250
99-01 Cobra cams were slightly different.
03-04 Cobra, Marauder and I believe Aviator cams are all the same.
Do you need new cams? Or just looking to improve?

Lower mileage wouldn't be bad, but if you don't have any issues I wouldn't bother they are the same cams. Best bang for your buck on cams would be the 96-98 cobra cams, you can pick up 20+HP to the wheels with them degreed. You can gain more with other cams, but Stock cams can take you just about everywhere you want power wise, aftermarket cams will give you that extra inch.

The whole cams thing is a total waste of money on a Marauder unless you have a set of 98 Cobra intake cams you can install , and degree your self otherwise the labor to install , and degree will diminish the slight gain.

Took me 2 days to degree my cams. Lots of trial and error.
