Edelbrock Camshaft/Lifter/Pushrod Kit Performer Plus SBC 87-Later w/ Thrust Plate

If you're working on a 1987 or later Small-Block Chevy V8 and looking to wake up the engine, this Edelbrock Performer Plus camshaft kit is a solid option. It bundles a hydraulic roller camshaft, matching hydraulic roller lifters, and pushrods, giving you the core components needed for a significant engine upgrade. This kit is designed to work well with Edelbrock's Performer and Performer RPM intake manifolds and cylinder heads, but it can also be paired with other components that operate in a similar RPM range.

The Rollin' Thunder camshaft inside this kit has a duration of 212 degrees on the intake and 222 degrees on the exhaust at .050 lift, with valve lift figures of .462" for the intake and .479" for the exhaust. The lobe separation is set at 112 degrees, and the intake centerline is at 107 degrees. These specs are tuned to provide a noticeable improvement in power and responsiveness, especially in the mid-range, while maintaining a respectable idle vacuum of 16" at 1000 RPM. Using a hydraulic roller setup like this also helps reduce friction compared to older flat-tappet designs, which can contribute to better fuel economy and longer component life.

This kit is a comprehensive package for rebuilding or upgrading the top end of your engine. It's important to note that this camshaft kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper setup and compatibility with your specific engine build.
