🔧 Vortex 224 MidMax – HR Series Hydraulic Roller Camshaft
Designed for Chevy 4.3L V6 (262ci) Engines
The Perfect Middle Ground — Power, Sound, and Street Manners
The Vortex 224 MidMax is a precision-engineered hydraulic roller camshaft designed for enthusiasts who want aggressive midrange torque and throttle response without sacrificing streetability. With 224° duration @ .050", .330" valve lift, and a 110° lobe separation angle, the MidMax strikes a solid balance between performance and drivability.
A slightly lopey idle, clean vacuum signal, and wide powerband make this cam a top pick for street/strip V6 builds—whether naturally aspirated or running light boost.
