What other modifications are recommended when installing this camshaft?

For optimal performance, it's recommended to use a 10:1 compression ratio, a torque converter with a 3000+ RPM stall speed, and low rear-end gears. This ensures the engine can effectively utilize the camshaft's improved airflow.

It's intended for street/strip use, particularly on 360 cubic inch engines and larger, and works best with a 10:1 compression ratio, a 3000+ RPM stall torque converter, and low rear-end gears.

This kit includes the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, a timing chain set, assembly lube to get you started, and decals. It's a comprehensive package for anyone looking to significantly alter their engine's performance characteristics for drag racing or spirited driving.
