Yes! Last time I called the Ford Motorsport hotline I inquired about
the cams used in '88. They said B cams were used on speed density.
They are usually marked by an orange stripe on the cam. If you remove
your distributor you can look straight down at the cam end that would
have the paint marks (if it is still visible). I am at work now but
can try to dig up what he mentioned for another color code for cams.

Found this out the hardway when the person I bought my Mclaren from
replaced the original motor with a newer crate motor. My engine is
surging, so it looks like I will install a mass air conversion.
