Rebuilding my 1998 5.9 dodge

Asked by Cisco Jul 16, 2017 at 02:42 PM about the 1998 Dodge RAM 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hi everyone

Im rebuilding my dodge 5.9 and i need help on how
to determine the correct camshaft for my rebuild.
Im using all new parts from bottom up. Im not all
about getting one from the local parts store id like
a good recommended brand.  How would i match
up the correct cam? Stock would be fine unless
theres something better without having to modify
anything else.

Order a stock pickup cam or install a mild RV type cam in it. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum- k6900/overview/make/dodge
