Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance camshafts and valvetrain components. This CL01-424-8 kit is built around their XE 242/248 hydraulic roller camshaft, designed to give your Chevrolet Big Block Gen VI engine a noticeable boost in performance for street and strip applications. It’s a popular choice for those looking to get more out of their engine without going fully custom.

This kit is best suited for engines with a compression ratio of 10.5:1 or higher and a torque converter with a stall speed of 3000 RPM or more. To really unlock its potential, you'll want to pair it with a good aftermarket intake manifold, quality headers, and heads that have been ported. The camshaft features a hydraulic roller design, which is known for its efficiency and ability to handle higher RPMs compared to flat tappet designs. This means less friction and more consistent valve operation.

When you open the box, you'll find everything you need to get started: the camshaft itself, a set of high-performance lifters, assembly lube to ensure proper break-in, and decals for your engine bay. This kit is designed to fit a 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 C3500. Remember, this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
