Description
Are you planning to rebuild or upgrade your 12-valve Cummins? Your Valvetrain is one of the most critical parts of the engine. Give yourself peace of mind and make planning easy with this kit, which upgrades every part of the 12V valvetrain. When you combine Hamilton's best all-around-performing camshaft with valve springs that control the valvetrain to 4500rpm and 80lbs of boost, pushrods rated to well over 2,000hp, and their 1.45″ tappets that provide more surface area, you have the best cam combo on the market for the 1989-1998 Dodge Cummins. If you’re looking for the quickest spool and the widest rpm band of all of Hamilton's cams, this is it. Initially designed for trucks that work hard and need instant torque in the low rpm range. It was later found to significantly help spool large single turbos, increase fuel economy, lower EGT, and maintain power at higher elevations, all while keeping big hp and rpm potential. FITMENT NOTES: For it to be “drop in” you will need no more than .020″piston protrusion and at least .055″ valve face depth with a standard gasket. If you do not meet the minimum requirements for piston to valve clearance, don’t worry, you can still run an oversize head gasket or cut valve reliefs.

Enter your zip and we'll see if installation is available.
