Product Details

This COMP Cams Cam & Lifter Kit CB 294B-8 gives you the core components to upgrade your Chevrolet Big Block engine. Inside this kit, you'll find the camshaft itself, a set of lifters designed to work with it, assembly lube to get everything started right, and decals and instructions to guide you through the process. This kit is specifically designed for Chevrolet Big Block engines originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts, covering displacements from 396 to 454 cubic inches.

The CB 294B-8 camshaft profile is a solid flat tappet design with a 256-degree intake duration and 266-degree exhaust duration at .050 lift. It's built for performance applications, particularly in marine or drag racing environments. For 396-427 cubic inch engines, it's recommended for heavy cars with a 3500+ stall converter and a compression ratio of 10.5:1 or higher, making it an excellent choice for jet boats or applications using an A or B impeller. If you're running a 427-454 cubic inch engine, a 10:1+ compression ratio is suggested to get the most out of this cam.

This kit is a solid option for those looking to build or rebuild a performance-oriented Chevrolet Big Block. It fits a wide range of vehicles, including classic models like the Chevrolet Chevelle, Camaro, and Impala, as well as trucks such as the C10 and K10 pickups from the late 60s through the late 70s and early 80s. Remember that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the included instructions for proper installation and break-in procedures.
