This camshaft will not require flycutting of pistons with the factory LS2 combustion chamber size; if the heads are milled, check piston-to-valve clearance. An aftermarket torque converter stall is necessary to unlock the camshaft's full potential, and installation requires BTR's .660 in Lift Platinum spring kit with titanium retainers and hardened pushrods.
