What kind of idle can I expect with this camshaft?

The Torker-Plus camshaft is designed for performance and will have a slightly rough idle. It's not recommended for applications where a smooth, quiet idle is a priority, such as trucks or towing vehicles.

What other parts are recommended to be used with this cam kit?

Edelbrock specifically mentions that this camshaft works well with their Torker II manifolds for optimal performance. Proper valve springs, retainers, and pushrods compatible with the camshaft's lift and duration are also essential for installation.

Is this camshaft legal for use in California?

No, this Edelbrock Torker Plus Cam and Lifters Kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.

About this part

Product Details

This is the Edelbrock Torker Plus Cam and Lifters Kit, part number 5002, built for small-block Chevy V8 engines ranging from 283 to 400 cubic inches. If you're looking to get more out of your street machine, drag car, or even your boat, this kit is designed to wake up your engine in the 2500 to 6500 rpm range.

The Torker-Plus camshaft features a duration of 232 degrees on the intake and 234 degrees on the exhaust at .050 lift, with .488 lift on both sides. Its 108-degree lobe separation angle and 106-degree intake centerline are tuned for a noticeable performance bump, especially when paired with a Torker II manifold. Keep in mind, this cam has a slightly rough idle and isn't the best choice if your vehicle is used for daily truck duty or towing.

Included with the camshaft are hydraulic flat tappet lifters, so you have the essential components to get your engine breathing better. This kit is a solid option for those seeking improved performance in demanding applications, but it's important to note it is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
