The Texas Speed & Performance L83V2-Stg1 camshaft is our newest version of our already popular L83 camshaft lineup. We were able to redesign the lobes for less lift and more power than our previous version. Not only will the new version be easier on the valve springs but the valvetrain noise will be much quieter too! This camshaft is a great choice for the enthusiast looking for an additional bump in horsepower without sacrificing any drivability. Factory torque converter friendly! It does not retain the factory AFM/DOD functionality that deactivates cylinders, so a DOD/AFM delete kit will be needed.
Note: Valve Springs Required, Pac 1219 or TSP .660 Dual Valve Spring, Also requires VVT Lockout.
