Does anyone know who sell an upgraded camshaft for the v6 camaro? And a average price to go with it, thx.

I think you would need 4, sounds expensive

Yes, it'll be camshafts. None are out yet though. Expect it to be expensive for four, and for it to be expensive. Especially since we have cam phasing.

The only place I know of that's working on it is RX.

UltrasonicKing · 10-03-2011, 02:45 PM

Why not grind your own?

bmorecam · 10-05-2011, 12:43 PM

I don't care how expensive it is, but of course as long as is not thousands of dollars I am in. Hopefully someone will come out with one before I pay my car off which should be by end of next year. If not, I guess I'll be saying my fairwell

made an inquiry the other day with vaspeed out of virginia beach. their engineer has something in the works, but not sure how far out he is to having something. just that there is another option on the way...hopefully sooner than later. i'll update when i get more info.

It'll probably be on the order of 1k for the set.
It may be blasphemy, but I looked up prices for the Ford 4.6 DOHC engine and Camshaft kits were running between 700-1200 dollars. You have to include the fact as popular as our cars are that there are a ton more ford 4.6’s out there.
For another point of reference a set of performance camshafts for the old northstar V8 is $500 + a $400 core charge

Even $1000 isn't too bad IMO. What do you think install would run on these?

Can't_C_Me · 10-10-2011, 05:25 PM

Wow that really isn't bad I was expecting much more for 4 cams! I would even be down for a pre order at those price ranges! But I think the install prices would be killer, especially to a none performance shop!

Beauwulf · 10-10-2011, 08:52 PM

Tracy... are those going to be a VVT delete or are you planning to keep the phasing?
