What is a 'retro-fit' hydraulic roller camshaft?

A retro-fit hydraulic roller camshaft allows you to upgrade from an older flat tappet camshaft to a more efficient hydraulic roller setup. This means you get the benefits of roller lifters, like reduced friction and improved performance, without needing to replace your cylinder heads or other major valvetrain components.

What kind of performance gains can I expect with this camshaft?

This camshaft is designed for improved mileage and a smooth idle, making it ideal for towing and everyday driving. It offers a noticeable performance upgrade over a stock camshaft, particularly in the lower and mid-RPM ranges, enhancing responsiveness for vehicles like vans and pickups.

Does this camshaft come with all the necessary components for installation?

This camshaft is sold individually. While it's designed to work with stock gear ratios and torque converters, you may need to purchase additional components such as roller lifters, roller rocker arms, and pushrods separately to complete the hydraulic roller conversion.
