Addition Information:
If you live at high altitudes, operate at low rpm or are looking for the best efficiency possible, this cam will help you considerably

Modification Required:

For it to be “drop in” you will need no more than .018″piston protrusion and at least .038″ valve face depth with a standard gasket. If you do not meet the minimum requirements for piston to valve clearance, don’t worry, you can still run an oversize head gasket or cut valve reliefs.

Applications:

low rpm efficiency
any size turbo, large or small
Meant for increased all around efficiency
Break in:

To make sure that you have no issues during break-in, follow these few suggestions:

-Make sure that the cam has a Liberal amount of quality assembly lube applied
DO NOT let the engine start without oil pressure
-When this is a new engine, be sure to put a liberal amount of assembly lube in the oil pump and prime the oil filter
-Be sure to change the oil after you have done your break-in procedure. When the filter and oil system are already primed, engine will get oil pressure much faster than if the oil is changed at the same time.
-Disconnect the fuel system and spin the engine with the starter until oil pressure can be read or until oil is coming out of the rocker arms.
-Do not let the starter run for more than 10 seconds at a time
-Once oil pressure has been verified, let the engine start and run for five minutes at 1200-1500rpm then shut engine down
-Adjust valves then you are cleared to abuse your engine. Enjoy the added airflow
if you need to re-torque or “hot-torque “the head, do so before adjusting valves. Re-torqueing the head changes the valve lash setting, so it is important to set lash last.
