COMP Cams Cam & Lifter Kit P8 XE284H-10

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance camshafts and valvetrain components. This Xtreme Energy XE284H hydraulic flat tappet cam and lifter kit is designed for Pontiac 265-455 V8 engines, fitting a wide range of vehicles like the Pontiac Firebird, Grand Prix, and LeMans, as well as Buick and Oldsmobile models from the late 70s and early 80s.

This kit is built for street/strip applications, meaning it's intended for cars that see regular driving but are also used for performance events. To get the most out of this cam, you'll want at least a 9:1 compression ratio, a 2800+ RPM stall torque converter if you have an automatic transmission, headers, and appropriate rear-end gearing. Expect a noticeable, rough idle that lets everyone know this isn't your average engine.

Included in the kit are the camshaft, lifters, assembly lube to get you started right, and decals. This is a solid option if you're looking to wake up your Pontiac V8 with a well-known performance camshaft profile.
