Camshafts
Peak Diesel Performance is proud to introduce the new Hamilton Diesel/Colt Cam collection of Camshafts for the Cummins 5.9L B Series Engine. Colt Cams Inc. has been working closely with Hamilton Diesel to develop some pretty fantastic camshafts. Zach Hamilton has dyno tested approx. 50 different combinations of profiles using different durations, lobe separation and installed centerlines. The end result is the masterpiece nicknamed the "Big Stick". Posted below are the specs for both the stock and their performance grinds but this just scratches the surface of the cam's characteristics. Ramp velocity and accleration play a key part in how a cam performs. Cummins run a mushroom type lifter that allows us a ramp speed that most valvetrains could not handle. These new profiles were meant for driveability. The "Big Stick" is usually big enough for even the toughest truck bogs and pulls. However, there is no compromise to the driveability: in fact we have seen an average of 2-3 mpg increase, 30-35% smoke decrease and a 200° EGT drop. All our cams are ground with an installed Center Line to Clear Valve to Piston (Always check this especially if you have decked the block)
