Ram 1500 Camshaft
The Camshaft in Ram 1500 vehicles is one of the engine parts which are used to control the opening and closing of valves through the translation of the rotational movement of the crankshaft into reciprocating movement. Also linked with the timing belt or chain, the Camshaft controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves through the pushrods with the aim of ensuring proper timing for the engine. The Camshaft configurations vary in the Ram 1500 models; the gasoline and diesel 24-valve V6 engines use the dual camshaft while the 16-valve 5. 7L Hemi has a design that is completely different from the rest of the engines. The Camshaft is made of high strength alloys like metals and this makes it to be strong but the wear can be a major problem as it affects the efficiency of the engine. By analyzing the performance of the Ram 1500, it is clear that the Camshaft is a vital part that affects parameters such as the RPM range and power.
