    Stage 2 Cam for a 6.4 ram 2500 with Lockout or Limter

    So I've done a bunch of searching for answers on limiters vs lockouts on the vvt. From what I gather stage 3 and lower cams generaly benifit from only limiting the vvt. Where as the lockout will actually decrease the power at lower rpm. I found that at FRP and MMX they list limiters. So when I...

    Can swap advice

    Hey folks. I’m looking to do a cam swap. I was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions. I’m looking to get the most HP gains without losing reliability, I understand that I’ll probably have to replace springs, push rods and lifters so I don’t lose said reliability. All advice is appreciated.

    Search for a replacement camshaft and valve lifters

I would prefer non MDS cam and Hellcat non MDS lifters. Also, the camshaft bearings don't need to be changed...

    Camshaft swap in Ottawa?

    Anybody from the Ottawa Ontario region know of a good mechanic/garage I can take my 2014 Ram to for a camshaft swap and how much it might cost? I was thinking about getting one from Moe's but it's not something I'm comfortable with doing myself.
