This kit is intended for Chevrolet Big Block engines, specifically the 396-454 cubic inch displacements, that originally came with flat tappet camshafts. It fits a broad spectrum of Chevrolet vehicles from the late 1960s through the 1990s.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

The kit includes the camshaft, lifters, assembly lube, and decals.
