Frequently Asked Questions:

1. What does the 204/214 duration mean?
   This refers to the number of crankshaft degrees that the intake and exhaust valves are open, measured at 0.050″ of lifter lift. A slightly longer duration generally means more top-end power, while a shorter duration often provides better low-end torque. 
2. What kind of performance increase can I expect with this camshaft?
   You should notice an improvement in low to mid-range torque and horsepower compared to a stock camshaft. The exact increase will depend on your engine’s other modifications, such as intake, exhaust, and cylinder heads.
3. Do I need new lifters with this camshaft?
   Yes, it is absolutely essential to use new hydraulic flat tappet lifters when installing a new flat tappet camshaft. Using old lifters with a new cam will likely cause premature wear and failure of both components.
4. Will this camshaft work with my stock valve springs and torque converter?
   Depending on the exact valve lift of this camshaft (verify with the manufacturer’s specifications), you may need to upgrade your valve springs to prevent valve float. For automatic transmissions, this camshaft should generally work with a stock or slightly higher stall torque converter.
5. Do I need to “break in” this camshaft?
   Yes, all new flat tappet camshafts require a specific 20-30 minute break-in procedure immediately after initial startup to ensure proper lubrication and prevent premature wear of the cam lobes and lifters.
6. Do you ship engine parts nationwide in South Africa?
   Yes, we offer fast and reliable delivery of engine components throughout South Africa.
7. Can I contact you if I have fitment questions about this camshaft for my specific SBC engine build?
   Absolutely! Our knowledgeable support team is available to assist with general fitment inquiries. Please provide details about your engine’s year, displacement, and any other modifications.
