Product Details

This is the COMP Cams C43 240H-8 Xtreme Energy camshaft, designed for Chevrolet 262 cubic inch (4.3L) V6 engines. If you're looking to improve your engine's torque and maintain good fuel mileage, this hydraulic flat tappet camshaft is a solid option. It's particularly well-suited for vehicles running higher gear ratios and overdrive transmissions, making it a great choice for city driving and everyday use.

The Xtreme Energy series from COMP Cams is known for offering a noticeable bump in performance without sacrificing too much drivability. This specific grind features 192 degrees of intake duration and 200 degrees of exhaust duration at .050 inch lift, which helps to create a strong torque curve right off idle. This means you'll feel a good pull from lower RPMs, which is beneficial for getting around town or when towing. The hydraulic flat tappet design means it uses standard lifters, simplifying installation compared to roller camshafts.

This camshaft fits a wide range of Chevrolet and GMC vehicles from the mid-80s to the late-90s, including popular models like the Chevrolet Astro, S10, and GMC Safari. When installing a new camshaft, it's always a good idea to inspect your lifters and consider replacing them along with the camshaft to ensure optimal performance and longevity. You'll also want to ensure you have the correct valve springs for the camshaft's lift profile.
