Default Camshaft, the same on all 1989-98 12V?

I need a new camshaft in my 1989 RAM. I've searched the net and are confused.....is it the same camshaft in all 12V Cummins 1989-1998?

And, what kind of camshaft is best? An original one, or a secondpart shaft with different specs?

Where to buy and recomendations are very welcome :-)

all the best

The N.

Why go stock when you can go aftermarket?

Contact those guys and see what they say.

they are not all the same, there are suttle differences, but they all will interchange, and like said, if you replace it go with an aftermarket, much better!!! i run a hamilton big stick in mine, but there are many options
