GEN 5 Stage 2 Cam w/VVT Limiter

The GEN 5 Stage 2 Cam with VVT Limiter from Brian Tooley Racing is engineered for serious engine builders and performance enthusiasts seeking refined power delivery and reliability in high-performance applications. This camshaft represents the evolution of Brian Tooley Racing's proven GEN 5 platform, designed to maximize horsepower and torque while maintaining factory-compatible valve timing control. Whether you're building a street performance engine, track-dedicated platform, or seeking measurable gains over stock specifications, this Stage 2 cam delivers the aggressive profile required for sustained power increases without sacrificing drivability or component longevity.

The integrated VVT (Variable Valve Timing) limiter is the defining technical advantage of this camshaft, preventing excessive valve timing advance that can compromise cylinder pressure and reliability during aggressive driving conditions. This Stage 2 profile increases valve lift and duration compared to OEM specifications, optimizing intake and exhaust event timing to improve volumetric efficiency and combustion dynamics. The precision-ground lobe design and hardened steel construction ensure consistent performance across thousands of cycles, critical for maintaining repeatability in engine dynamometer testing and real-world driving scenarios. Brian Tooley Racing's manufacturing process incorporates strict tolerances and quality control, delivering a camshaft that performs predictably whether your engine is naturally aspirated or turbocharged.

Installation requires proper valve spring selection, rocker arm geometry verification, and timing chain alignment—professional engine builders and experienced enthusiasts should reference Brian Tooley Racing documentation and your engine platform's specifications before installation. This camshaft is compatible with GEN 5 platform engines and requires no valve lash adjustment once properly installed with matching upgraded valve springs. Users report noticeable throttle response improvement, mid-range torque increases, and top-end horsepower gains when paired with complementary induction and exhaust modifications. The VVT limiter feature makes this Stage 2 cam an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking performance increases without expensive engine rebuilds or complete VVT system deletion.
