5.9L Magnum V8 Comp Cams Camshaft INSTALL | PART 2

[@tonysteele564]

I love that you have a Viper and a SRT10 ram but your giving all the attension to the little old RT

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Oh we have done a lot of work on those as well but right now our focus is this little R/T. We have a ton of mods for the viper waiting to go on but we will start that build at 50k subs 😈

[@oscarwalton1188]

You should keep the timing chain cover loose then install the harmonic balancer with assembly lube on the main seal then Tighten the bolts on the cover the balancer will align the cover and main seal since magium engines don't have dowel pins

[@jonathanfreedom1st]

I'm doing timing chain and cover on my 5.9 2nd gen now, good pro tip thanks

[@bobbyd9583]

I have seen a lot of people get the magnum distributor 180 degrees out. if you line up the dots on the crank/cam dot to dot (12 o'clock crank and 6 o'clock cam).... thats TDC on #1 cylinder exhaust stroke...not compression. dot to dot is TDC compression for #6 the world may never know why mopar did this but once you have the cam installed, give the crankshaft one full revolution (which would rotate the cam 180 degrees) then drop in the distributor and you are set to go. This will put both timing marks at 12 o'clock. Also your crank turning tool.... it has three slots in it....they are different sizes.... use the tightest one to eliminate as much play as possible, if it still has more than 1 degree of play, cut some strips of an aluminum can to make a thin shim and put that shim next to the crank key to take up slack. this method takes a little more time but reduces the chance of error considerably. Don't worry I'm not a keyboard mechanic, I am in the process of building a 360 magnum right now that will be highly scrutinized by many people....I have the unfortunate problem of a 2002+ 4 bolt mount block so I won't have my block here for 90 days. but I should have everything ready for the build by the time it gets here. I put a wrist pin through #3 cylinder in my block two weeks ago or I would have just re-used it..... Motor was built when it failed: IndyMA-X heads w/stainless valves hughes FI airgap hughes cam hughes big gulp TB full roller valvetrain with hardened pushrods. 4 hole injectors hellcat fuel pump ARP everything (mains, rods, heads, intake) 46RE (with a few mods, mostly stock) Ran hard, right until it didn't

[@Blaydrnnnr]

Just finished my cam/head swap. Cam, cam bearings, heads, rockers, lifters, timing set. Already had an Airgap intake, (where'd you find an M1?!) I posted on part 1 about the bearings. (Make sure you check them good!) You got lucky on the bearings. Almost everything with over a hundred thousand on it has some pretty serious wear, that I've done. Nicely done and pretty quick. Great job showing the degreeing of the cam. Time consuming but always better safe than sorry. Nice job.

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Thanks man!!!

[@DooDicky]

I got M1 2bbl ready to go on my Jeep 5.9, they are rare.

[@Blaydrnnnr]

@@DooDicky VERY.

[@lifeonadime4703]

I love the hell cat swap but man oh man, I sure miss when she idled this way 🤘

[@chaiswoodbury6136]

Great content man. I could never dare to wrench in flip flops, bad luck does not recommend it lol

[@chayanert7780]

Oh yeah cam time!!👍👍

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Shes finally in!

[@blackbeardlivesagain]

Oh ya you have to hear it run!

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Always!!

[@kevinmonseler3592]

Hi John! Hope all is well, hello from 🇨🇦

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Same to you!

[@andrewhavice8841]

It won't belong and that little r/t will out run the rest of your fleet " awesome videos buddy, I always look forward too them" and I just ordered a cam for my r/t dak,

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Thanks 👍

[@davidledford6482]

not quite like old 360,s an 340,s etc,allways had to warm cam up about 20 minutes or so at higher r p m,now i forget,but done it a few times back then,but no computers etc etc on old belvederes, roadrunners an dusters etc...good luck,an you know i,ll be watching etc..

[@guylongley1573]

Sounds mean can't wait to see it on the road. Send it!!😎😎

[@marioguevara9791]

What cam did you get? I was looking on the comp cams website and can’t find it

[@floydbellinger565]

Very nice brother!!! She sound smooth!!! Now enjoy her and have some fun!👍

[@MtyMous]

11:19 "straight to jail". 🤣🤣

[@BoostedMotorsports]

Overcooooook Cheekin? Straight to JAIL

[@MrThomasfouraker]

@@BoostedMotorsports How did that distributor get 180* out? I have read online where this tends to happen a lot. I think the dots are suppose to be at 12 and 12 and a lot of people drop it in at 6 and 12. About to drop a .512 in mine, never done it and a tad nervous! Also, did you put anything other than some light oil on the cam prior to putting it in? Thanks! Great install and really enjoy the Magnum videos!

[@Blaydrnnnr]

@@MrThomasfouraker Dots always at 6 and 12. ( unless you're using the keyways to advance or retard the cam timing) It can be out for many reasons. Usually if it's 180° out, someone didn't make absolutely sure number 1 was at TDC. Had nothing to do with the timing marks, probably more to do with thinking it was still sitting on the compression stroke. Or maybe they were looking at the marks on the damper, which many times have several marks.

[@02mp9696]

I don't know how many times I had it out 180 dg lol like every time. Good stuff buddy 👍🇨🇦🍺

[@wicked59rt]

Why didn't you opt for adjustable roller rockers while you had everything apart? Sure hope you guys got the correct length pushrods. I'm sure you already know but those stock heads won't last long and they're barely flow enough for any real performance for N/A applications. Looking forward to what you guys have planned next!

[@BoostedMotorsports]

We just wanted to do a semi build on this one and get a full build going with the engine on the stand most likely 💪

[@jeromewieland55]

I have a set that flow 273 cfm intake and 214 cfm exhaust. The EQ heads without the pushrod pinch don't flow that good cut. Made 22hp and 18tq more than a ported eq head. Just gotta go with the flow.

[@PhillipFrischman-vo8gm]

Nice job. I need help with my Dodge...

[@dillonwilhoit5386]

What cam is this?

[@SmudgyContent]

Lolz here I am a year later coming back to these. Long time follower “yoopertube “ BOii got a hellcat in it now. Can’t pick on cam anymore.

[@korn111685]

Congrats on the cam!! I’m about to do an ls cam. Ugh. All that work.

[@tonysteele564]

Why not use the old school ohemi orange?

[@billcat1840]

I did on my 5.2 and it looks awesome

[@IMMENGINES]

Good Job guys! Cam sounds good....how'd it drive?

[@tomball7681]

Use gasket shelaq instead of rtv makes the gasket rack up and stay on there and then solidifies and seals the gaskets. Permatex makes it in a little brown bottle.

[@LarryReynolds591]

Awesome!! Next time you do a 5.9 you should look into Marty Fletcher's mods and products. He's got a great oil valley pan shield to help keep intake temps down and also does great work on the factory intake!

[@MrThomasfouraker]

@Rob Roy Hey Rob, seen in another video you're in FL. I am just outside Jax myself. Marty has been good with me so far but I haven't ordered my Cam or tune from him yet. Just some items for a kegger mod and made inquiries he answered promptly. Hopefully my experience continues to be a pleasant one. He's really the only guy that I know of that is focusing on low end power with these motors which for my application is most important.

[@MrThomasfouraker]

@Rob Roy I hate to hear that. I am glad you received a free FRP tune. FRP has been around a long time but his tunes are very pricey.

[@Blaydrnnnr]

@@MrThomasfouraker Everybody has their "go to" people. Whoever you use, don't let them talk you into something you don't want or can't use. Make sure you have an idea of what you're trying to get or get to. Make sure the person you're talking to knows what you're trying to achieve and can give you a plan and advise. Building a motor for a goal is FAR better than wasting money throwing parts at it.

[@jesuslopez-mf2we]

Where did you get the cam and did you tune it ?

[@DrNo-dz2hd]

The Hellcat sounds great and all, but this is one of the best sounding setups I've ever heard. Especially on a Dakota. What was your exhaust setup here?? I gotta know!

[@arizonaguy7574]

11:40 sounds like they popped a few of those Modelos ;)

[@nathanperalta5267]

Could you drop a link for the cam kit?

[@chrisdejong2481]

Awesome install led that went smoothly it looked sounds great as is it can only get better from here can't wait to see her give a little rip on the road👍👍

[@ramzi.3606]

Man that is a clean chop, but would you go with a bigger cam?

[@juggernautgaming4440]

got a 5.9 myself going for a comp cam. what size cam did you use OEM or bigger?

[@Welcometofacsistube]

Kept the dak hey? Subbed again.

[@weavertx4776]

What kind of cam/lift is it?

[@shawnbardwell7576]

My son and I are getting to rebuild his 5.9 magnum I was wondering what intake and efi you used

[@bennyboyy7]

Youre prolly gonna need a new tune to keep it running the whole time, the stock tune is not designed to run with that much air.

[@brownwrench]

Gotta ask...are those heads already ported?

[@Stevnhawking]

No, all Stock

[@benalfano1469]

how do you tune for new cam and do you need new push rods ?

[@michaelmcgee8714]

what camshaft is used in the build

[@thomasgehringer1901]

Will everything work on a 5.2

[@demetriusbesteder1093]

what size cam you running

[@pudge_the_fish7gaming638]

What cam did you use? Did you change anything head wise?

[@edwardculpepper2397]

What cam did yall use.

[@MA702Tone]

Boost and Bad Habbits will it go mopar!?

[@PastorOverall]

That manifold and throttle body what is it and where can I get one for my 5.2 97 Ram?

[@Isaiah-Astwood]

what is the link for this cam

[@Blaydrnnnr]

My install went wrong somewhere. Went with recommended variable rate lifters and STILL can't get these preloaded right. Went with the specs that came with the cam and heads, but that wasn't deep enough. Been readjusted twice now and still sound like crap at idle. Looks like I'm going to have to go back in and switch them for an OEM style HP set.

[@Ps3gamer8568]

Who did you have tune it

[@austin_94gt18]

What cam did you use? And is it boost friendly?

[@Albinosheep-hm8ll]

How do you know how to replace the cam in the right position?

[@cjrod9443]

What cam and intake did you use?

[@davidledford6482]

is there a cam condom..???

[@codymcdonald6772]

It's running with a factory tune or have u tuned it to compensate for the new valve clearance if not and it's running on a factory tune would u happen to have the link or part number for the cam

[@cootkings6257]

Parts cart ??

[@devinaustin2088]

What where the cam specs you used and where do you get yours

[@sinister6.450]

Fuck yeah! Good work gentlemen

[@JTC-go3kg]

What duration cam ?

[@HokieD1993]

@9:28 looks like dur 218/224

[@louiechaplin]

Is this running on stock tune?

[@BoostedMotorsports]

You can fire it but you will need a tune

[@bdogjr7779]

[@davidledford6482]

no giggling....lol

[@Ar2041]

What are the specs for the cam and where did you get it from? Also would this work for a 5.2?

[@Blaydrnnnr]

Yep.

[@HokieD1993]

@9:28 looks like dur 218/224 lift .478/.483 109 LSA

[@alexwagoner285]

Just out of curiousity, what is the most lift/duration you can use on a 5.9 without having to flash the computer?

[@chrisbeeler5809]

Ll

[@chrisbeeler5809]

Ll pp ll

[@jamesharold3869]

The rollers were in backwards that’s why the cam was burnt up!!!! Wasn’t getting oil to lobes like the journals were.!!!! 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@daveleaming1808]

If you use a 12inch all thread in the cam for install.. It is a lot easer to control the cam .No need to bang the bearings with the cam

[@stanleybowden8548]

Replace free plugs

[@prior8t2000]

I have to ask you, if your in California as I am... Will, it pass a Cal-Smoge..??.. If it wont pass, then I maybe know of a guy who will pass it for you in Az.. Let me know waz-up...

[@kennethkoontz5036]

You killing me, dude get the seal tools !! It's obvious you can afford them 😶

[@meengreen52]

Ill take that engine off ur hands now that its out your truck 👀

[@kellismith4329]

Hockeypuck that seal in

[@jeepoffroad91]

Good Christ put the damn sledgehammer down gomer. FFS they make a seal driver kit or get you a deadblow.

[@davidledford6482]

dont you warm it up for 20 minutes at 2000 r pm or so,like the old ones.?????/// dudes..dont guess at it, know what your doing......

[@MtyMous]

Lol. We weren't guessing. I've built plenty of motors, stabbed in numerous cams, and been working on Dodge since I was a kid. The break in is simple on these trucks with hydraulic lifters. All is well my friend. Just having fun and wrenching. 🤘

[@triple_j5252]

It's a roller cam, you don't have to break them in like a flat tappet.

[@02mp9696]

Ya man, just stick it in and off ya go lol

[@prior8t2000]

I jus wanna update you with some fairly new info you might wanna know..??.. I found this really nice family guy that can be of some service for in case you still wanna Pass Cali smog.Smog.. He's able to get done for your vehicle for only $200.00.. You jus need to bring in your vehicle to his shop to getter done.. Then you'll be back on the road in no time flat..

[@Fzjoverland]

What cam is that??
