CEL-Check engine light code P0340

I have been getting a repeating CEL after about 30 min. of driving my '05 stang GT, after it really warms up I guess.

I have a JTL CAI installed with SCT tuner. The tuner displays the code" P0340 CAM POS, S CIR ER 1 S 1"

After doing a little googling it seems it is a "Camshaft Position Sensor" failure.

The car does seems to drive fine, no rough idling/surging, etc.

I went to the Ford Dealer and picked up a new Cam Sensor, about $35 and installed it, both places, with same results after 30-min. of driving, CEL comes on with same code.

Anyone have this happen or know if it is dangerous to keep driving when the CEL keeps coming on with this sensor error?

Thx for any advice/info/tips.

Exhaust/cats are stock cept for corsa axelbacks, based on all my googling CEL-P0340 is Camshaft Position Sensor error/failure.
