Product Details

This is the COMP Cams XE256H-10 hydraulic flat tappet camshaft and lifter kit, specifically designed for Ford's Big Block 429 and 460 engines. If you're looking to get more usable power out of your classic Ford truck or muscle car, this kit is a solid option.

The XE256H-10 profile is known for providing a good, stable idle, which is crucial for street-driven vehicles. This kit includes the camshaft, a set of matching hydraulic lifters, assembly lube to ensure proper break-in, and decals. COMP Cams is a well-known name in performance engine parts, and this kit reflects their experience in creating camshafts that offer a noticeable improvement in drivability without sacrificing reliability for these iconic Ford V8s.

When installing a new camshaft, it's always a good idea to inspect your valve springs to ensure they are compatible with the new cam's lift and duration. Refer to the included instructions for the recommended break-in procedure, which is critical for the longevity of both the camshaft and lifters.
