FMBP MTF-6 Engine Camshaft

Performance Camshaft for Ford and International

Melling MTF-6 is a hydraulic flat tappet performance camshaft built for street-oriented torque and usable idle quality. It is made in the USA and is intended for engines that need stronger low-rpm response and mid-range pull without moving into an extreme race profile.

Key Features

• Hydraulic flat tappet design for performance engine builds
• Class I cam profile with 200°-215° duration range
• Good idle quality with low-rpm torque and mid-range performance
• Works with stock or slightly modified engines
• Suitable for manual or automatic transmission applications
• Performance-grade camshaft from Melling Performance

Detailed Description

The MTF-6 camshaft is a performance-focused engine camshaft with 204° intake duration at .050 inch lift, 214° exhaust duration at .050 inch lift, 0.449 intake valve lift, 0.473 exhaust valve lift, and a 110° lobe separation angle. It uses a hydraulic cam type with a hydraulic flat tappet lifter setup and a 1.6 rocker arm ratio. These specifications support stronger torque delivery and a broad power band for older Ford and International V8 applications. Fits 1965-1996 Ford F-150, 1965-1996 Ford F-250, 1965-1996 Ford F-350, and other listed Ford and International models. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 503901, E-1099-9) for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring or upgrading throttle response in a performance engine build
• Improving low-speed torque for street-driven use
• Replacing a worn camshaft in older Ford and International engines
• Supporting a mild performance combination with stock or lightly modified parts
• Addressing weak mid-range power in a compatible engine package

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine compatibility before installation, especially for emissions requirements, since listed applications are not California compliant. Confirm lifter type, rocker ratio, and valvetrain setup before assembly. This camshaft is intended for engines that match the listed fitment and performance profile, including Ford Bronco, Ford Econoline, and International truck applications.

Quality Assurance

Melling develops, tests, and manufactures its performance camshafts to strict material and quality standards in the USA. The MTF-6 is part of the Melling Performance line, which covers street, RV, strip, and circle track applications.
