Re: {Chrysler 300} Cams



Hi Richard;

F and G cams should be easy to get.
See this note from our One Stop Shop page http://www.chrysler300club.com/rcm/repop/1a.html
Scroll down to F, G Camshafts and there you go:


Jamie Hyde writes in 2021:
We now have a supplier of F, G, non-ram K, and L camshafts. Contact Hunter Webb at Camcraft Performance Cams. Phone (828) 681-5183 or (800) 426-2261. The part number for the F and G cam is 21-1010-10R4 HCR. The part number for the non-ram K and L is 21-1010-10R0. If you buy lifters at the same time as the cam, you get a guarantee against "flat cam". Hunter has both pin style and ball style lifters available. The box comes complete with the cam spec card and cam lifter ZDDP break-in lube.
The ram cam was designed off the original camshaft drawings and is an exact copy of the original but has the special 4 degree retard built into it so you do not reuse your original F and G cam drive. It is recommended that you degree your cam to the specs that come in the box as each engine is different. These are new cams (not regrinds) that are produced on state of the art equipment by hand and each one is fully inspected for quality. Camcraft is a cam shaft supplier to Nascar engine builders.

Hello,

Since there has been a lot of discussion related to a cam for a different year, I am trying a new email thread and attempting pictures for the first time to the group.

I have the top end of my G engine apart. I had a bad exhaust leak and wanted to detail some things by taking the intakes were off. While apart, I wanted to look at the cam as I have never run zinc. The engine was assembled 20 years ago, using a Mopar Performance Cam P4452783 (6 pack specs which were close to the original cam specs). I degreed and retarded the cam per factory specs….

If the pictures come thru, the discoloration can be seen on some of the lobes. You cannot, however, feel any roughness or anything other than very smooth, even with finger nail. The lifters all still spin on the lobes also 

I am thinking since I am in this deep, I should replace the cam. Unfortunately, this cam has been discontinued and the replacement seems to be intergalactic backorder. I would consider a Comp Cams, but the specs are different. I’d like a lope to the engine, but when possible, I do drive this quite a bit around town and don’t have time to be changing plugs frequently, so I don’t want to go too large.

My question is for those who have a lot of experience with cams and rebuilds. What are your thoughts on these discolorations on the lobes and simply keeping this cam in the engine?

Best regards,

Richard Osborne
