Removing VVT and AFM lets Texas Speed run more aggressive lobe profiles than a factory-style cam allows, which it reports produces stronger midrange and top-end power while keeping the engine drivable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit combines the buyer's choice of Texas Speed Stage 1, 2 or 3 L83 3-bolt non-VVT camshaft with the Texas Speed Gen V .660\" dual valve spring kit, which uses PAC springs, titanium retainers and PRC integrated seat and seal, and a set of 16 3\/8\" hardened chromoly pushrods in the selected length. A Texas Speed Gen V LT VVT delete kit is required and is sold separately, as is a DOD\/AFM delete kit if the engine has not already been converted.
