Most intake manifolds only lose about 10-15 torque down low. The 30hp gain up top is well worth that brief loss in torque to me. I'm sure it would be the same with these cams.

There's a difference from the 11-14 stage 3 cams and the 15-16 stage 3 cams:

From beefcakes site:

Comp Cams 2015 and Up Coyote CR Series Camshaft - Max effort street/strip - 2000-7500 RPM Range.

Features & Benefits:
• New lobes feature faster ramps, more lift & more area under the lift curve than previous Coyote cams
• Work w/ stock valve springs & new Ford mid-lock phaser system w/out requiring limiters or phaser mods
• 3 Grinds are available for N/A engines & 2 for boosted applications so there are options for nearly all vehicles
• All CR Series cams are no-springs-required for easy install; two upgrade spring kits are available

COMP Cams® 2015 Ford Mustang Coyote CR Series Camshafts are the first new cam and core series for 2015 and later Coyote engines. New lobes improve upon the 2011-2014 XFI™ Camshaft Series and feature faster ramps, more lift and more area under the lift curve. The cams work with stock 2015 valve springs and the new Ford mid-lock phaser system without requiring limiters or any other phaser modifications. Three grinds are available for naturally aspirated engines with two designed specifically for blower applications. All are no-springs-required for easily installation in the vehicle. However, two spring kits (part nos. 26113 and 26125) are available for those that would like more spring with high boost or who really want to push RPM limits. COMP Cams® 2015 Ford Mustang Coyote CR Series Camshafts are the absolute best way to unlock the power potential of the brand new Coyote engine. They are also available for 2011-2014 Ford Coyote applications.

*NOTE: These cams are for 2015 and newer Coyote engines ONLY.

Cam Specs
RPM Range: 2000-7500
Duration @.050": 235* I / 237* E
Valve Lift: .516" I / .514" E
Lobe Separation Angle: 131*

you build the engine for the power level you want to be in, a stage 3 cam is for a high revving engine, that will rarley see low rpms

the lower the rpm , the lower the stage you want

Couldn't agree more. If you are chasing a peak number then throw an intake on and stage 3 cams on there. If you are looking to combine some low with high then do what I am going to do. Intake with a stage one to gain back some low with the intake I put on there for other reasons.

What would you suggest for a 350 manifold car shifting at 7600. If I could get some of the torque back down low but have it pull strong to 7600 would be a win.

For those that have installed these, how was the install? Does Comp Cams provide instructions? I'm planning on doing a GT350 manifold this fall--along with oil pump gears, crankshaft sprocket, and balancer--and I'm wondering if I should just go all out and do cams while I'm in there. Just not sure how difficult it is, and I also need to check if Lund has tuned for them yet.

mine are getting installed as we speak...should be finished soon...
What stage? I'm curious about stage 2 myself... see if it limits low end loss (or even gains some) while giving a little up top.

stage 3 with upgraded valve springs, a gt-350 intake and tb, arh long tubes, and a circle d 5c converter. I wont lose any low end because the converter will allow me to rev it quickly to lock at 3600rpm right in the middle of the power band...

Yep, good combo. I was considering NA but with no torque converter so that I could track the car.

Definitely post results/review. :)
