how to replace cam in a 350 vortec engine

Our BP-205 camshaft is a high lift version of our BP-203 camshaft allowing you to make even more horsepower and torque across the entire power band with our aluminum cylinder heads, intake manifold and dished pistons.

Our high lift series of billet steel camshafts require the use of our flycut forged pistons for added piston to valve clearance. Expect exceptional power everywhere with our intake manifold and cylinder head combination while still providing adequate piston to valve clearance in engines equipped with factory stock pistons. Our BP-203 camshaft is designed to provide good horsepower and torque across the entire power band. The BP-202 camshaft sometimes called the 'ZZ496' because of its similarity to the 'ZZ502' but with GEN7 firing order, is designed for truck and workhorse RV use with emissions compliance, stock-like idle, fuel economy and peak towing power of primary importance. The BP-201 camshaft is designed to make maximum torque for truck pulling competitions or very heavy towing applications over 8000lbs. These billet steel cams are designed to deliver maximum power while still increasing the torque levels over the widest possible range. To make the 8.1L an LS2 on steroids, replacing the top end is a must. The 8.1L cylinder heads and intake manifold were not designed to produce power past 4300rpm, seriously limiting the output of these engines - especially when adding extra camshaft duration. Unlike the LSX series of engines, a cam swap alone won't provide big horsepower gains. Great for all-out large displacement applications! Powerband: 2800rpm - 6400rpm High lift, must use Raylar forged pistons and water-cooled dry exhaust in boat applications. Powerband: 2200rpm - 5800rpmĮxtreme / race camshaft. Works very well with our crate or stroker kits in performance daily driver applications. High lift, must use Raylar forged pistons.
