Enginetech high-performance camshafts are ground to precision specifications using computer-aided design to maximize power output while maintaining street drivability. These performance grinds are designed as direct drop-in replacements requiring no engine modifications. Always install a new timing set and replace all lifters when installing a new camshaft - reusing worn lifters causes rapid lobe wear and premature failure. Use the specified follower type as indicated in the application notes. Verify bore size and journal dimensions match your engine block before ordering.
