CAMSHAFT GUIDE

FORD GT350 FIAT PLANE 5.2L

The Ford 5.2L Voodoo flat-plane engine is one of the most advanced naturally aspirated V8 architectures ever produced by Ford—engineered to operate at extremely high RPM while delivering razor-sharp throttle response and exceptional airflow.

GSC Power-Division camshafts are designed to unlock the full potential of this unique platform.

Whether you're building a high-performance street car, a track-focused road race engine, or a maximum-effort naturally aspirated or boosted combination, our Voodoo camshaft profiles increase airflow, improve cylinder filling, and extend usable power throughout the RPM range.

CONSISTENT
MATERIAL QUALITY

Each profile is developed using advanced computer simulation, decades of overhead valvetrain engineering experience, and real cylinder head flow data to precisely synchronize valve events with the breathing characteristics of the Voodoo cylinder head. The result is optimized lift curves, improved high-RPM stability, and stronger power across the entire powerband.

At the core of every camshaft is GSC’s exclusive forged billet cam blank, manufactured in-house from bearing-grade alloy steel sourced from a single U.S. steel mill for absolute material consistency. Each camshaft is finished with our BLACK ISE surface treatment, reducing friction while providing extreme wear protection under the high spring loads and engine speeds demanded by the Voodoo platform.

BLACK ISE SURFACE TREATMENT

Precision-machined on advanced CNC equipment to tolerances tighter than OEM, these camshafts deliver the consistency, durability, and repeatable performance serious engine builders expect.

The result is a camshaft package that enhances the Voodoo engine’s signature high-revving character—stronger midrange torque, improved top-end power, and the stability required to push the platform deeper into the upper RPM range.

When it comes to extracting maximum performance from Ford’s 5.2L flat-plane V8, GSC Power-Division delivers the valvetrain technology professional builders trust.
