COMP Cams Cam & Lifter Kit CS 314H-R10

This is the COMP Cams Magnum 252/252 Hydraulic Roller Cam and Lifter Kit, part number CL12-470-8. It's built for Chevrolet Gen 1 Small Block engines, covering a wide range of displacements from 262 to 400 cubic inches. This kit is designed for those looking for a more aggressive setup, suitable for limited street use and bracket racing applications. It's important to note that this kit is intended for engines with a flat tappet camshaft; it will not fit factory roller camshaft engines from 1985 and newer, nor will it fit LS-based engines.

To get the most out of this cam, you'll want to pair it with a 3500+ stall speed torque converter and 4.10 gears. The kit includes the camshaft, hydraulic roller lifters, assembly lube, decals, and instructions. You'll also need to consider headers and a race intake manifold to properly support the cam's performance characteristics. Expect a radical idle sound with this setup, indicating its performance-oriented nature. Ensure your engine block has the necessary provisions, especially for earlier 1955-1957 265 engines which require an oiling groove on the 5th cam journal.

This kit is a significant upgrade for performance builds. Always refer to the included instructions for proper installation and break-in procedures to ensure the longevity of your new camshaft and lifters.
