Jim what's up man ?? I beleive you have the F-303 right ? If so ..... why not just bolt on a set of 1.7 rockers ? As long as your springs are rated for the extra lift ...you will acheive the same lift numbers as the x- cam with alot less agrivation for around the same money . wink.gif

Does that have stock pistons in it? If so, you'll have ptv issues.

I'm pretty sure you can go up to .550" lift with the stock pistons . As long as you don't use a canted valved head ... like the twisted wedge .
