Product Details

This camshaft is designed to work seamlessly with Edelbrock Performer intake manifolds in vehicles operating from off-idle to 5500 rpm, making it ideal for street performance applications.

Key Features:

  • Smooth idle characteristics perfect for daily drivers, trucks, vans, RVs, and 4x4 vehicles
  • Delivers major improvements in throttle response and torque output
  • Complete kit includes flat tappet lifters, assembly lube, and installation instructions
  • Proven performance: produces 470 ft-lbs of torque when paired with Edelbrock Performer 2-O intake manifold #2161 and stock cylinder heads
  • 218° intake duration / 228° exhaust duration
  • 0.500" intake and exhaust valve lift
  • 114° lobe separation angle with 109° intake centerline

This camshaft offers an excellent balance of performance and drivability for street-driven big-block Chevrolet engines. The Performer-Plus profile provides strong low-to-mid range torque while maintaining smooth idle quality and good vacuum for power brakes and accessories. Not compatible with 1965-66 big-block Chevrolets requiring a grooved rear cam journal.
