Product Details

When you're looking to get more out of your Chrysler LA-series engine, this COMP Cams Cam and Lifter Kit is a solid choice. This kit gives you the camshaft and the matching lifters you need to make a significant change in your engine's performance. It's designed for Chrysler 273, 318, 340, and 360 cubic inch engines, which means it fits a wide range of vehicles like the Dodge Challenger, Plymouth Barracuda, and Chrysler Cordoba from the 1960s through the 1990s.

This is a solid roller camshaft kit, meaning it uses roller lifters for reduced friction and improved performance compared to flat tappet designs. The XR280-10 grind is part of COMP Cams' Xtreme Energy line, known for making a noticeable difference. With an advertised 3000 RPM stall speed and 10:1 compression, you can expect a strong pull in the mid-range of your RPM band, along with a radical idle that lets everyone know you've got something serious under the hood. The kit comes with everything you need to get started: the camshaft itself, the necessary lifters, assembly lube to get everything properly coated before startup, and decals for your toolbox or engine bay. Instructions are also included to guide you through the installation process.

Installing a camshaft is a job that requires careful attention to detail, often involving removing the engine's front timing cover, water pump, and potentially the cylinder heads. It's a job that many DIYers tackle, but if you're not comfortable with that level of engine work, it's always best to consult a professional mechanic. This kit is intended for off-road use and is not CARB approved, so it cannot be shipped to California.
