Product Details

If you're looking to build a serious street/strip machine with your Ford 429 or 460 Big Block, this COMP Cams Xtreme Energy XR286 R10 solid roller camshaft and lifter kit is a solid choice. This kit is designed for weekend warriors who want to extract more performance from their engine, especially when paired with a 3000+ RPM stall torque converter. It’s a significant upgrade over stock, aiming to improve power output for those who enjoy spirited driving and occasional track use.

This kit includes the XR286 camshaft, a set of solid roller lifters, assembly lube, and decals. The camshaft features a 248/254 degree intake/exhaust duration at .050 inch lift, with .572 inch intake and .572 inch exhaust lift. These specifications are designed to provide a noticeable increase in horsepower and torque, particularly in the mid to upper RPM range. Because it's a solid roller setup, you can expect improved valvetrain stability at higher RPMs compared to hydraulic lifters. Keep in mind that this type of camshaft requires supporting modifications; you'll need to ensure you have appropriate intake and exhaust systems, along with proper gear ratios, to take full advantage of its potential.

This kit fits a wide range of Ford vehicles from the late 1960s through the mid-1990s, including popular models like the Ford F-150, F-250, and Gran Torino. It's important to note that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For optimal performance and longevity, always follow the included manufacturer instructions for installation and break-in procedures.
