HEMI Camshafts for Power and Precision
When you upgrade your HEMI camshaft, you’re reshaping your engine’s power curve to unlock an aggressive performance gain. The right HEMI camshaft reshapes your engine’s airflow, sharpens acceleration, and transforms its tone into something much more powerful.
Dusterhoff Racing offers precision-ground camshafts designed for HEMI engines, including 5.7, 6.1, and 6.4-liter platforms. Regardless of your choice, our cams are engineered with the exact specifications that are best for your setup, backed by tuning support for a seamless installation.
Find the Right Camshaft for Your Build
When looking for the ideal HEMI camshaft for your build, consider factors such as your engine platform, performance goals, and supporting mods.
Dusterhoff Racing offers camshafts tailored to 5.7, 6.1, Hellcat and 6.4 HEMI engines, each with unique specifications to match different power levels – and driving styles. Whether you’re tuning for torque, top-end horsepower, or something in between, you’ll find proven profiles ready to exceed your expectations.
HEMI Camshaft Options
Dusterhoff Racing carries a full lineup of camshafts for 5.7 HEMIs built for real performance gains. Professionals design these camshafts to match the specific airflow and timing requirements of the 5.7 platform, making them an essential upgrade for those adding power through bolt-ons or forced induction.
Key features include:
- Direct fitment for factory and lightly modified 5.7 HEMI engines
- Compatibility with daily drivers, street/strip cars, and purpose-built track vehicles
- Profile engineering that improves valve timing, increases airflow, and boosts combustion efficiency
Finding your ideal camshaft for HEMI depends on your current modifications and intended use. If you’re not sure which profile fits your goals, we’ll break down the differences between Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3 camshafts below.
Choosing the Right Camshaft Stage: Stage 1, 2, or 3
Every HEMI camshaft profile delivers a different driving experience: it simply depends on how far you’re taking your build. Dusterhoff Racing offers multiple cam stages to help you target specific gains, such as getting better mid-range torque or maximum power at high RPMs.
Choosing the correct profile ensures your engine runs efficiently, pulls harder, and sounds exactly how you want it to. Here’s a quick breakdown of each HEMI camshaft stage:
- Stage 1: Designed for daily driving and mild upgrades, this stage offers improved airflow and throttle response without sacrificing street manners. It works well with stock internals and basic bolt-ons.
- Stage 2: Built for more aggressive builds, a stage 2 camshaft profile increases power through the mid to upper RPM range and pairs well with exhaust upgrades, intake mods, and performance tuning.
- Stage 3: This stage offers the highest lift and duration. Stage 3 requires supporting mods and tuning to perform correctly, and it’s best suited for race applications or fully built engines looking for peak horsepower gains.
If you’re unsure which stage matches your setup, our team can help you choose the best option based on your goals and mods.

Do I need supporting mods for a 5.7 HEMI camshaft?
Some HEMI camshaft profiles, such as Stage 2 and Stage 3, perform best when paired with intake, exhaust, and tuning upgrades. While Stage 1 cams can work with stock components, higher stages often require valve spring upgrades and custom tuning for the best results.
