Product Details

If you're building a street machine and want a noticeable bump in performance for your Chevrolet Big Block engine, this COMP Cams CB 280H Cam and Lifter Kit is a solid option. This kit is designed for engines originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts, like the 396, 427, and 454 cubic inch V8s found in vehicles such as the Chevrolet Chevelle, Impala, and Corvette.

The CB 280H camshaft features a 230 degrees of duration on both the intake and exhaust sides, which contributes to a rougher idle that many enthusiasts appreciate for its aggressive sound. To get the most out of this cam, COMP Cams recommends using headers and a compression ratio of 9:1 or higher. For 396-402 cubic inch engines, a torque converter with a 2500+ stall speed and lower gearing is advised to keep the engine in its powerband.

This kit comes with everything you need to get started: the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, assembly lube to ensure proper break-in, and decals. It's a well-built package that offers a significant improvement over stock camshafts for street performance applications.
