New Camshaft Options for Late-Model 5.7-Liter Hemi Engines

iBestTravel has partnered with Brian Tooley Racing to bring a variety of new cam options for late-model 5.7-liter Hemi owners. The third-generation Hemi may seem to be a thing of the past for brands like Dodge, Jeep, and Ram; however, in the hot-rodding community, it is just getting started. With millions of 5.7-liter Hemis produced, iBestTravel is excited to announce the availability of the full line of camshafts from Brian Tooley Racing, a leader in camshafts for modern fuel-injected V-8s.

Truck Norris Camshaft

The Truck Norris grind is designed for performance enthusiasts looking to enhance their Charger, Challenger, or Ram. This camshaft offers impressive gains of 71 hp and 62 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm, pushing the engine’s operating range to 7,000 rpm while maintaining a smooth feel and gratifying rumble. This option works seamlessly with factory torque converters, though conversion to non-MDS is required, along with a 4-degree phaser limiter to restrict VVT function.

Stage 1 Camshaft

The Stage 1 camshaft is effective for all driving situations, delivering an additional 1,000 rpm, yielding gains of 65 hp and 58 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm. Redline is rated at 6,500 rpm, with minimal changes in idle quality compared to stock performance. It also requires conversion to non-MDS to function properly.

Stage 2 Camshaft

The Stage 2 camshaft retains streetable functionality while enhancing idle sound. It offers an extended operating range up to 6,700 rpm with a modest power increase of 71 hp and 62 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm. Being well-matched with factory torque converters, it also requires non-MDS conversion and includes a phaser limiter.

Stage 3 Camshaft

BTR’s Stage 3 camshaft adds more intake duration and extends the operating range by 1,600 rpm, providing significant gains of 83 hp and 71 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm. It features a redline of 7,100 rpm and a noticeable lope at idle. An aftermarket torque converter is recommended, with similar non-MDS and phaser limiter requirements.

Stage 4 Camshaft

For those seeking ultimate performance, the Stage 4 camshaft extends the operating range by a remarkable 1,900 rpm. This camshaft generates an additional 85 hp and 72 lb-ft of torque, pulling strongly up to 7,400 rpm, but it also exhibits a pronounced lope at idle. It necessitates the use of an aftermarket torque converter and requires both non-MDS conversion and a phaser lockout to disable the VVT function completely.
