ok to start off i blew a head gasket on my truck.so ive got to tear the motor down.im thinking of changing the cam while im in it.what is the stock specs for the cam.Ive got a 98 expedition with the 5.4 triton.idk if its a 3v or not i dont know about the year diffrents on the motors.but im just looking for a little cam not something to big that i need to upgrade more of the motor.just lookin for a little more loaping sound.also what would you recommend to change while ive got it tore apart.i think im going to go ahead and change the timing belt and gears also.would aftermarket timing gears make a big difference?are they worth it.thanks for any help and any suggestions on what to do while ive got the motor apart.i just see it as while im in there might as well do a little work to it.

the 3v 5.4L wasn't used until something like 04 or 05... I know that youre 98 definitely has the 2v... sorry I can't help with the other stuff
