Hamilton Cams 07-C-178/208S Steel Camshaft for 1989-2018 Dodge Cummins 5.9L/6.7L

Hamilton Cams 07-C-178/208S Steel Camshaft

The Hamilton Cams 07-C-178/208S Steel Camshaft is designed to improve the performance of 1989-2018 Dodge Cummins 5.9L and 6.7L engines. This camshaft enhances towing capabilities, fuel efficiency, and engine responsiveness, making it an excellent choice for daily driving and heavy-duty applications.

Detailed Product Description

Optimized Camshaft Profile

The camshaft features a duration of 178° intake and 208° exhaust at 0.050" lift, with .290" intake lift and .310" exhaust lift. This design ensures better airflow and combustion efficiency, resulting in quicker turbo spool-up and improved low-end torque—beneficial for towing and fuel economy.

Steel Construction for Durability

Constructed from steel, the camshaft offers superior durability and strength compared to its cast counterpart. This robust design is ideal for high-performance applications that demand reliable components under extreme conditions.

Performance Benefits

This camshaft reduces exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) by 200-300°F, promoting engine longevity. It enhances bottom-end power, making it ideal for towing and managing heavy loads. Additionally, it offers potential fuel economy improvements of 1-3 MPG, depending on driving conditions and vehicle setup.

Compatibility and Installation

The 07-C-178/208S camshaft is compatible with 1989-2018 Dodge Cummins 5.9L and 6.7L engines. For 12V engines, ensure piston protrusion does not exceed 0.020" and valve face depth is at least 0.055" with a standard head gasket and a 99° intake centerline. For 24V engines, piston protrusion should not exceed 0.020", and valve face depth must be at least 0.038" with a standard head gasket. If specifications are not met, an oversized head gasket or valve reliefs may be necessary. Clearances should always be checked during installation.

Break-In Procedure

To ensure proper camshaft break-in and longevity, apply assembly lube generously to the camshaft lobes and journals. Prime the oil system to achieve immediate oil pressure at startup. After startup, run the engine at 1,200-1,500 RPM for five minutes and then shut it down for valve adjustment. Complete the process with an oil change to remove contaminants from the break-in period.
