What it means for your build
With an aggressive cam profile suited for higher intake velocity, this hydraulic camshaft is ideal for enthusiasts aiming to reclaim strong top‑end power on classic Holdens. To achieve the claimed performance, pair it with a well‑matched engine package that breathes well and revs cleanly into the RPM window above. Expect a noticeable lift in upper RPM response when the rest of the induction and exhaust system are optimized for higher flow.
Important installation notes
- Machining is required to fit these components.
- Must use performance springs, retainers, and seals designed to handle the cam’s ramp and lift.
- Converter stall speed should be equal to or greater than the cam’s minimum RPM in its power range for best driveability.
