ABOUT THIS KIT
COMPLETE ELGIN E1840P SLOPPY STAGE 2 LS CAM KIT – Authentic Elgin E1840P Sloppy Stage 2 Hydraulic Roller Camshaft (228/230 Duration at .050", .585"/.585" Valve Lift, 112 LSA, 108 Intake Centerline, 2,200–6,500 RPM, 3-Bolt, Made in USA), 16 Premium LS7-Style Roller Lifters with Lifter Trays, .660" Dual Valve Springs with Steel Retainers Locks and Valve Stem Seals, Hardened Pushrods (7.400", 0.080" wall), Front Timing Cover Gasket Set, and 2 LS9-Style MLS Head Gaskets. Most complete Elgin E1840P Sloppy Stage 2 LS cam kit for 6.0L and 6.2L rectangle port LS cam swaps — one order one shipment zero guesswork.
DYNO PROVEN +50 TO +75HP – HEAVY RHYTHMIC LOPEY CHOP – 228/230 Duration at .050", .585"/.585" Valve Lift, 112 LSA, 108 Intake Centerline, 2,200–6,500 RPM Operating Range. The Elgin E1840P completely deletes the quiet civilized whisper of a factory GM truck engine and replaces it with a menacing mechanical rumble that demands immediate attention everywhere you drive. The wide 228/230 duration forces solid valve overlap at low engine speeds creating that highly sought-after uneven fast-paced spitting cadence — every exhaust pulse hitting the air with sudden force. Estimated 50 to 75+ horsepower gain over the factory truck cam profile.
16 PREMIUM LS7 ROLLER LIFTERS WITH TRAYS + 7.400" HARDENED PUSHRODS – LS7 style lifters with lifter trays are wider more stable and built to handle the aggressive high lift cam profile of the Elgin E1840P without failure — the first upgrade every serious LS builder makes on any 6.0L LQ4 cam swap, 6.2L performance build, or rectangle port LS truck upgrade. Lifter trays included to keep everything properly oriented during installation. Hardened pushrods at 7.400" length and 0.080" wall thickness provide precise valve actuation and maximum strength — stock pushrods flex under load on every LS cam swap and these don't.
PRECISION-SPEC .660" DUAL VALVE SPRINGS + STEEL RETAINERS + LOCKS + VALVE STEM SEALS – Purpose-matched to the E1840P's .585"/.585" lift profile — install height 1.810", closed spring pressure 160 lbs at 1.810", open spring pressure 415 lbs at .660" lift, coil bind at 1.015". Delivers the seat and open pressures needed for reliable high-RPM operation throughout the entire 2,200–6,500 RPM power band. Steel retainers locks and valve stem seals included for a complete professional spring installation — no additional parts needed.
LS9 STYLE MLS HEAD GASKETS + FRONT TIMING GASKET SET – Two premium LS9-style Multi-Layer Steel head gaskets precision matched to the larger bore rectangle port cylinder heads found on 6.0L and 6.2L LS engines — superior crush resistance and long-term sealing reliability that composite gaskets simply cannot match. Front timing cover gasket set provides everything needed for a complete professional Elgin E1840P 6.0L or 6.2L LS cam swap install with nothing left out. No last minute parts store runs — everything is right here in one box.
SLOPPY STAGE 2 – THE UNDISPUTED KING OF THE BUDGET LS UNIVERSE – Despite its heavy performance chop the idle is highly reliable once the engine warms up — settling into a consistent predictable idle between 750 and 850 RPM without wildly fluctuating or surging. At highway speeds the engine delivers a massive freight-train surge of power pulling cleanly and continuously all the way to 6,500 RPM — intense and highly addictive every single time. The E1840P is globally famous for its turbo pedigree — under boost budget LS engines routinely cross the 600 to 800+ horsepower mark with this exact cam profile. Big power. Broad powerband. Built for the street.
