EMPI takes the guesswork out of matching a cam to its lifters and gear. The Deluxe GT-3 Camshaft Kit (77-3106-0) bundles the GT-3 profile with the exact lifters, gear, and hardware it was designed to run with — so your build or rebuild goes together right the first time.

Features

  • EMPI GT-3 camshaft — new chilled cast-iron billet, Parkerized for trouble-free break-in, stroker-clearanced out of the box
  • 8 phosphate-treated 28mm convex-face lifters in heat-treated 4130 chromoly, matched to the GT-3 lobe taper
  • CNC-machined T6 aluminum cam gear for accurate timing
  • Grade 8 hardware, timing card, and assembly lube included
  • Large displacement, high-range power — hot street, strip, and off-road competition

Cam Card

  • Valve lift: .430" @ 1.1:1 rocker ratio
  • Cam lift (gross): .391"
  • Advertised duration: 291°

Fitment

Use a ZDDP oil or additive on break-in, as with any flat-tappet cam. NOT CONFIRMED: 1971-and-later Type 2 and Type 4 / 914 (different cam/case), engines needing a stock-replacement-only profile.

Unreliable product be careful
Size: King (Pack of 1), Size: King (Pack of 1)
I bought this pillow and loved it. King size and firm. I bought another one and it is less firm and smaller in length (as seen here) and not at all to the quality onto first one. I’d be careful and check these if buying. Very disappointing experience

A little misleading
Size: King (Pack of 1)
Overall, it is comfortable. However, I ordered a king sized which is 36" long, but this pillow is only 33". That's somewhere between a queen and kind size. Second, it is not a medium firm. It is more toward soft and lets the head drift down close to the mattress level Over time, you may have neck problems. Time will tell. Update: It is great! My neck feels better and I sleep better. There is still a little odor, but it's not a problem. I recommend this pillow.

Solid and Firm, but not too Firm
Size: Standard (Pack of 1)
Great pillow, best I ever put my head against! Not too high, not too firm, do not recommend for stomach sleepers, but I am mostly a back sleeper. It is also heavy enough to support your head.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Adjustable and Better Than Most I’ve Tried
Size: Standard (Pack of 1)
I’m a really tough pillow critic and have a hard time finding one I actually like. With that said, this pillow was better than a lot of others I’ve tried—mainly because you can remove some of the latex shavings to adjust the firmness. I ended up taking out about 20% (do it over a big trash can because the shavings can get messy!). When it arrived it was too firm for me, which is why I had to take some filling out. Even after adjusting it, it’s still not my absolute favorite pillow, but I do use it every night as a “hug” pillow and it works great for that. I think people who aren’t as picky as I am will probably really enjoy it, especially since you can customize the amount of latex to get it just right. I’d give it 3.5 stars, but rounded up to 4.

Good Value Latex Pillow
Size: Standard (Pack of 1)
