Product Description
Brian Tooley Racing BTR Gen V Stage 1 Turbo Camshaft for 5.3L and 6.2L LT Engines
Camshaft Specs: 215/23X Duration, .639"/.639" Lift, 112.5 LSA, +38% Fuel Lobe
Build a responsive turbocharged Gen V LT engine combination with the Brian Tooley Racing Stage 1 Turbo camshaft. Designed for milder street-and-strip 5.3L and 6.2L combinations, this BTR cam works with small twin-turbo systems or single turbochargers in the 76mm-to-85mm range. Its profile delivers good street manners while producing more power than comparable camshafts with additional duration. BTR developed the Stage 1 Turbo camshaft to create a broad overall power curve while maintaining valvetrain stability and durability. It can be used with a stock torque converter in supported 6.2L applications, while 5.3L combinations are recommended to use a 2,800-rpm-or-higher converter.
Key Features & Benefits
- Stage 1 Street-and-Strip Profile: Designed for milder turbocharged Gen V 5.3L and 6.2L engine combinations. The profile balances increased performance with the street manners required for vehicles that see regular road use.
- Designed for Common Turbo Combinations: Developed for compatible setups using small twin turbochargers or a single turbocharger in the 76mm-to-85mm range. This application focus makes the camshaft well suited to moderate turbocharged LT builds.
- Broad Overall Power Curve: Engineered to produce more power than comparable camshafts using additional duration. The Stage 1 profile focuses on achieving a strong overall power curve instead of relying solely on a larger-duration camshaft design.
- Valvetrain Stability Focus: Developed according to BTR’s valvetrain stability and durability standards. Its .639-inch intake and exhaust lift, 112.5 LSA and +38% fuel lobe support the intended Gen V turbocharged application.
- Application-Specific Converter Guidance: Compatible 6.2L combinations can retain the stock torque converter. For supported 5.3L applications, BTR recommends using a torque converter with a stall speed of 2,800 rpm or higher.
Notes
