If you're looking to wake up your street machine with a noticeable bump in performance, this COMP Cams Xtreme Energy hydraulic roller cam and lifter kit is designed for OE roller Small Block Chevrolet engines. This kit is a popular choice for those building a performance street car that still needs to be drivable on a daily basis. It's engineered to work with factory roller camshaft setups, making the transition smoother for many builds.

This XR282HR-1 camshaft features a 230/236 degree duration at .050 lift, which is a solid profile for street performance. It's designed to work best when paired with other supporting modifications like an upgraded intake manifold, performance headers, a higher stall torque converter (around 2500 RPM or more), and appropriate rear-end gearing. These components work together to help the engine breathe better and utilize the camshaft's improved timing for a stronger powerband, especially in the mid-to-upper RPM range. The kit includes the camshaft, hydraulic roller lifters, assembly lube, decals, and instructions, so you have the essential parts to get started on your engine build.

This kit fits a wide range of vehicles from 1987 and newer, including popular models like the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and C1500 trucks. Remember that for optimal performance and reliability, it's crucial to ensure all supporting components are correctly matched to the camshaft's specifications. Always refer to the included instructions for detailed installation guidance and any specific requirements for your engine build.
