Camshaft Specs for Cathedral-Port LS Truck Engines: 208/21X duration @ .050, .549/.549 lift, 108.5° LSA — calibrated to boost torque and midrange power while preserving manageable idle and strong vacuum in 4.8L, 5.3L, and 6.0L cathedral-port platforms.
Designed for Cathedral-Port Builds: Optimized for LS1, LM7, LQ4, LC9, and LR4 4.8L, 5.3L, and 6.0L engines, providing broader torque bands and better throttle response for trucks used in towing, daily driving, and light performance applications.
Optional Matched Valvetrain Components Available: Variations allow the addition of valvetrain upgrades such as springs and retainers specifically chosen by BTR to complement the Stage 2 V3 profile for enhanced valve control and reliability.
Improved Torque & Midrange Response: Stage 2 profile increases torque and midrange power, delivering a more responsive feel and improved acceleration without sacrificing drivability or strong idle quality.
Brian Tooley Racing Engineering: Developed with BTR's performance-proven V3 technology and precision machining standards, providing consistent valve motion, dependable vacuum retention, and long-term reliability.
Description
The BTR Stage 2 LS Truck Camshaft V3 Cathedral-Port Kit is engineered to deliver stronger torque output, improved midrange power, and enhanced throttle response in cathedral-port LS truck engines. Designed by Brian Tooley Racing, this Stage 2 camshaft uses V3 lobe technology to balance performance and drivability, making it ideal for daily drivers, towing vehicles, and mild performance builds alike. With refined valve timing events and optimized lift profiles, this kit helps unlock additional torque without compromising low-end manners, idle quality, or vacuum. Builders can choose the Stage 2 cam as a direct performance upgrade or in conjunction with optional matched valvetrain components engineered by BTR to ensure proper valve control and long-term durability.
