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

When you're looking to get more out of your 1987 and later Small-Block Chevy V8, this Edelbrock Rollin' Thunder camshaft kit is a solid choice. What you get in this package is a complete setup: an Edelbrock Rollin' Thunder hydraulic roller camshaft, a set of matching hydraulic roller lifters, and the necessary pushrods. This kit is designed to work well with Edelbrock's Performer or Performer RPM manifolds and cylinder heads, but it can also be paired with other components that operate in a similar RPM range.

This kit is built around a hydraulic roller camshaft, which generally means less friction and improved fuel economy compared to flat tappet designs. The camshaft specifications show a duration of 234 degrees intake and 238 degrees exhaust at .050 lift, with valve lift at .539 inches for intake and .548 inches for exhaust. The lobe separation is set at 112 degrees, with an intake centerline at 107 degrees. This combination is tuned for a good balance of power and drivability, producing about 12 inches of idle vacuum at 1000 RPM. This means you'll see a noticeable improvement in performance, especially in the mid-range and upper RPMs, without sacrificing too much low-end torque or making the engine difficult to manage.

This kit is designed for a wide variety of vehicles, including popular models like the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and C/K series trucks from the late 80s and 90s, as well as many Buick and Cadillac applications from the same era. It's a comprehensive package that addresses the core components needed for a camshaft upgrade, helping to wake up your engine's potential.
