Enter the specifications shown on your cam card. Durations must be measured at .050-inch tappet lift—not advertised duration.
Choose your GM generation, get a matched cam swap kit, DOD delete kit, or AFM delete kit with every lifter, gasket, and timing component accounted for, then add the correct tune without guessing.
A cam swap kit is more than a camshaft in a box. On GM's Gen III LS, Gen IV LS, and Gen V EcoTec3/L83/L86 engines, the camshaft is only one part of a job that also touches lifters, valley covers, timing components, gaskets, and — on most trucks and SUVs built after 2006 — the factory Displacement on Demand (DOD) or Active Fuel Management (AFM) system. A complete cam kit is built so every one of those parts is correct for your specific engine before it ever reaches your driveway, instead of leaving you to piece together part numbers from five different listings and hope they're compatible.
This matters because GM changed hardware significantly across generations. A 1999–2006 LS cam kit for an LM7 or L59 can, in some cases, be a cam-only swap if the factory lifters are healthy and the new cam is designed for factory springs. A 2007–2013 GM cam kit almost always requires a full DOD-delete build — new non-DOD lifters and trays, a converted valley cover or block-off hardware, head gaskets, head bolts, and a complete gasket and seal set. A 2014–2018 Gen V performance cam kit is its own animal again: AFM-delete lifters, a Gen V-specific valley cover, and in many cases a VVT lockout, none of which cross over with Gen III or Gen IV part numbers. Buying a camshaft package that was actually engineered for your generation — not just "an LS cam kit" — is what keeps a cam swap from turning into a comeback.
That's why we don't sell loose parts and hope you get the combination right. Every cam swap parts list on this page is matched: the correct valve springs for the lift you're running, the correct pushrod length and material, the correct lifters for a DOD delete or AFM delete, the timing components rated for the application, an OEM or upgraded oil pump, and the full gasket set the job actually calls for. If your engine needs a VVT delete to run a non-VVT cam, that's flagged automatically. If it doesn't, you're not sold a part you don't need.
The Cam Kit Builder above does the compatibility work for you. Pick your generation, engine, and job type — cam-only swap, DOD delete, AFM delete, or a full valvetrain upgrade — and it filters the catalog down to parts that are actually compatible with your combination, with live pricing and stock status pulled straight from the store. You can build a kit piece by piece, start from one of the popular builds below, or buy a complete matched kit outright. All three paths use the same underlying compatibility logic, so however you get there, the parts list is correct for a Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, or any other truck or SUV built on these engine families.
Common combinations customers build with the Cam Kit Builder above. Use these as a starting point, then adjust for your exact engine and options.
A named BTR camshaft on the Gen III platform, paired with the matched hardware for a cam-only-eligible LS cam kit.
Complete Gen IV DOD delete cam kit — non-DOD lifters, valley cover conversion, and full gasket set matched to the 5.3L.
The same Gen IV DOD-delete platform logic applies to the 6.0L L76/L96/LY6 — matched lifters, timing, and gaskets for the larger displacement.
A named TSP camshaft for Gen V trucks, built into a complete AFM-delete cam kit with Gen V-specific lifters and valley cover.
The 6.2L Gen V counterpart to the L83 build — same AFM-delete logic, matched lifters, and cam options for the larger engine.
Tahoe, Suburban, and Yukon share the same 5.3L platforms as Silverado and Sierra — an AFM delete kit is required on 2014–2018 L83 trucks, a DOD delete kit on 2007–2013 trucks.
J.R. Jones Racing LLC is run by Jason, not a call center — the person who builds your tune is the same person behind the parts lists on this page.
Every remote tune is personally built and reviewed by Jason, matched to the exact cam, DOD/AFM/VVT status, and parts in your kit.
Every cam kit is built around what a given generation and engine actually requires — no guessing which lifters or gaskets go with which cam.
Gen III, Gen IV, and Gen V hardware is not interchangeable. Kits are filtered by your exact platform, not a generic "LS cam kit."
Choose OEM-spec replacement parts to keep costs down, or step up to performance valve springs, pushrods, and camshafts in the same builder.
Questions about fitment, DOD/AFM/VVT delete requirements, or what a build actually needs get answered by someone who works on these engines.
Parts kits ship quickly once ordered, so your build doesn't sit waiting on a warehouse.
Add a custom remote tune through the tune builder so the calibration is matched to the exact cam and hardware in your new combination.
A cam swap, DOD delete, AFM delete, or VVT change always needs a matching calibration eventually. How you get there is up to you.
Buy just the physical cam swap parts — camshaft, lifters, gaskets, and timing components matched to your platform.
Bundle your cam kit with a professionally built calibration matched to the exact cam and DOD/AFM/VVT changes in your order.
If you need an HP Tuners interface, use the MPVI4 option shown at the bottom of the tune builder. It is added to the same tune order without being listed here as a separate catalog product.
A complete cam kit includes the camshaft, matched lifters, lifter trays or guides where applicable, timing components, head gaskets and bolts where the heads come off, a full gasket and seal set, and — on DOD/AFM-equipped generations — the correct valley cover or block-off hardware. The exact list depends on your generation and job type; the builder above filters it automatically.
On a 1999–2006 Gen III cam-only swap, existing healthy lifters can sometimes be reused with an NSR-style cam. On 2007–2013 and 2014–2018 platforms, new non-DOD or non-AFM lifters are always required as part of the complete kit.
The OEM oil pump is included as a required part in the complete DOD-delete and AFM-delete kits. An upgraded high-volume or high-pressure pump is an optional performance upgrade, not a requirement.
It's not always required, but it's strongly recommended while the front cover is already off for the cam swap — replacing it later means doing that labor a second time.
It depends on the cam. Factory-spring-compatible NSR cams can often reuse OEM pushrods in good condition. Larger cams that require upgraded valve springs also require matched chromoly pushrods of the correct length.
If your 2007–2013 Gen IV engine has factory Displacement on Demand and you're changing the cam or lifters, yes — DOD delete hardware is part of the complete kit. Gen III (1999–2006) engines don't have DOD to delete.
If your 2014–2018 Gen V L83, L86, or L82 engine has Active Fuel Management and you're changing the cam or lifters, yes — AFM delete is the Gen V equivalent of a DOD delete and is included in the complete Gen V kit.
Only on VVT-equipped engines where the replacement camshaft isn't designed to work with variable valve timing. The builder flags this automatically based on your engine and cam selection.
Yes. The Parts Only path lets you buy the matched cam kit with no tune attached, so you can use your own tuner or shop for the calibration.
Yes. If you've already got the parts or the work is already done, you can order a tune on its own through Build Your Tune.
Yes. The Parts + Custom Remote Tune path adds a calibration matched to your exact cam and DOD/AFM/VVT changes to the same order.
Yes. Choose your tune first, then use the MPVI4 option at the bottom of the tune builder to add the interface to the same order. Vehicle credits are separate.
Yes — Silverados built across the 1999–2006, 2007–2013, and 2014–2018 model years use the Gen III, Gen IV, and Gen V engine families covered by this builder. Confirm your exact engine with the VIN Decoder or RPO Code Lookup.
Yes — Sierra shares the same GM truck engine platforms as Silverado across all three generations covered here.
Yes — Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, and Escalade share the same 4.8L/5.3L/6.0L/6.2L engine families as the trucks, just in SUV form.
You order a tune, send in a stock read from your vehicle using a supported HP Tuners MPVI2, MPVI3, MPVI4, or supported EFI Live device, and receive a custom calibration built around your cam, DOD/AFM/VVT status, and other modifications. See Common Remote Tuning Questions for the full walkthrough.
