Description:
Edelbrock's Performer-Plus camshaft kit (part #3712) is designed for small-block Oldsmobile 350-403 V-8 engines and includes flat tappet lifters, assembly lube, and instructions. Specs are 204/214 degrees duration at .050, .449 inches/.473 inches valve lift, and 114-degree lobe separation, with a powerband from off-idle to 5500 rpm. It pairs with the Edelbrock #3711 intake and produced 330 ft-lbs of torque on a 350 with stock iron heads in testing. The smooth idle makes it well-suited to daily drivers, trucks, vans, RVs, and 4x4s rather than dedicated performance builds.

FAQs

Q: Are camshafts sold individually?
A: Camshafts are sold individually unless otherwise noted in the product description. Single overhead cams (SOHC) utilize one camshaft while dual overhead cam (DOHC) motors utilize two.

Q: What do camshafts do? Why buy camshafts?
A: Air travels through your intake manifold into your intake valves and exhaust valves. By upgrading to more aggressive camshafts on both the intake and exhaust side, it will create greater duration and lift. This means the intake and exhaust valves can remain open longer, which allows for more air to move through the cylinder head efficiently. If you're looking to get more horsepower out of your car, aftermarket camshafts are a great option.

Q: How do you install camshafts?
A: Installation should be left to the pros on this one since timing will be involved. If you plan on doing it yourself removal of the upper timing belt cover will need to be done to reveal the cam gears. The valve cover along with the camshafts will need to be removed. Once this is done replace your factory camshafts the aftermarket camshafts and reinstall your cam gears. Make sure when you remove and reinstall the camshafts and cam gears they are at top dead center (TDC). Replace everything as you removed them and re-time your vehicle.
