COMP Cams Cam & Lifter Kit CBVI 283Th R

If you're looking to give your Chevrolet Big Block GEN VI engine a more aggressive sound and improved performance, this COMP Cams Thumpr Cam and Lifter Kit is a solid option. This kit is designed for high-performance street use and is compatible with a wide range of Chevrolet and GMC trucks and vans from the mid-to-late 90s, including models like the 1996-1999 Chevrolet C2500 Suburban and the 1996-2000 GMC C2500. It features a hydraulic roller camshaft with a 227/241 duration profile, which is known for producing that distinctive choppy, thumping idle that many enthusiasts seek.

This kit includes everything you need to get started: the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, assembly lube to ensure proper break-in, and decals. While it can work with a stock torque converter, it performs best with a 2000+ RPM stall converter and appropriate gearing to take full advantage of its performance characteristics. The hydraulic roller design means less friction and wear compared to flat tappet cams, contributing to better reliability and performance over time.

When installing this camshaft, it's important to follow the included instructions carefully, especially regarding the break-in procedure with the assembly lube. This kit is a significant upgrade for your engine's valvetrain and will noticeably change the exhaust note and throttle response. Please note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
