Late-model Mopar fans can have something else to be happy about. In the pursuit of more power, Lunati just released a new camshaft designed for the 5.7 and 6.1L HEMI V8 engines. So for owners of the Charger, Challenger, Magnum, and 300C looking for that lumpy idle and more power can read all about this new grind below in the official press release.
Official Release:
Crank Up Your 5.7-6.1 Hemi’s HP and Torque With Lunati Voodoo Camshafts
Owners of the modern Hemi already know that the fuel-injected 5.7L and 6.1L Hemi packs a peppy punch from the factory, but power is one of those things enthusiasts never seem to have enough of and Lunati is giving them what they want with its series of computer-designed Voodoo camshafts that boost performance for the 2003-up, non-variable valve timing, Chrysler-Dodge Hemi V-8 engines in cars and Ram trucks.
New Voodoo Hemi cams retain the factory hydraulic roller lifters for ease of installation and cost savings although Lunati Valve Spring Kits (springs, retainers and locks) are required to properly function with the increased valve lift and extended RPM capability available.
The mildest of these new Lunati Voodoo cams provides a noticeable power increase even with a stock Hemi engine while the two remaining cams produce serious, ground-pounding power when correctly matched with performance aftermarket components.
Pt. No. 21120700 is recommended for very strong increases in low-end and mid-range torque (1,200-5,200 RPM) for 2×4 or 4×4 trucks, SUVs or mild street applications. It offers 209/213 degrees @ .050” cam lobe lift (260/264 degrees advertised dur.), and .506”/.512” valve lift with a comfortable 113 degree lobe separation for a slightly “lumpy” idle.
Pt. No. 21120701 provides significant increases in low-end and mid-range torque in the 1,500-5,600 RPM range. It offers 217/221 degrees @ .050” cam lobe lift (268/272 degrees advertised dur.), and .518”/.525” valve lift with a 113 degree lobe separation for a noticeable idle. Pt. No. 21120702 delivers greatly increased mid-range torque and upper-RPM power for serious street and race applications. This cam responds especially well to aftermarket bolt-on’s and enhanced computer tuning. It offers 225/229 degrees @ .050” cam lobe lift (276/280 degrees advertised dur.), and .531”/.538” valve lift with a 114/112 (Int-Exh) degree lobe separation with a very notable idle.
Each requires custom tuning measures and Lunati matched Valve Spring Kits. If these new Voodoo cams aren’t enough, Lunati also offers custom cam profiles aided by its race-experienced tech help service to help you choose the right cam, valve train and complete performance components package for your engine and chassis.
Features:
- Three options to choose from – mild to wild
