Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for performance engine components, and this Magnum 236/236 hydraulic flat tappet cam and lifter kit is a popular choice for Chevrolet Gen 1 Small Block engines. If you're looking to give your classic Chevy a more aggressive sound and improved performance, this kit is designed to do just that. It's built to work with a range of engines, from the 265 up to the 400 cubic inch displacements, and is commonly found in vehicles like the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and C10 trucks from the 1980s and early 1990s.

This kit includes the camshaft, lifters, assembly lube, decals, and instructions needed to get the job done. The 236/236 duration on both intake and exhaust sides means you'll get a noticeable, choppy idle, and it's engineered to perform best with a 9.0:1 compression ratio, a 2800+ RPM stall speed torque converter, headers, and appropriate rear-end gearing. Keep in mind that this is a flat tappet camshaft, so it's important to verify your engine doesn't have a factory roller setup, especially on later model Small Blocks from 1985 and newer, as they gradually transitioned to roller cams.

For optimal performance and longevity, ensure your engine meets the specified compression and supporting modifications. This kit is a solid option for enthusiasts looking to wake up their Gen 1 Small Block Chevy.
