Product Details

If you're looking to get a bit more out of your Chevrolet inline-six, this COMP Cams Magnum camshaft is a solid option. It's designed for good street performance, especially when paired with a stock torque converter or one with a 2000+ RPM stall speed. You can expect a noticeable, choppy idle with this cam, which many enthusiasts appreciate for the sound and the indication of a more aggressive tune.

This is a hydraulic flat tappet camshaft, meaning it uses hydraulic lifters to maintain zero valve lash automatically, simplifying installation and maintenance compared to solid lifter cams. The Magnum series from COMP Cams is known for well-built components that offer improved performance. This particular camshaft, the C61 268H-10, has a duration of 218 degrees on both the intake and exhaust sides, making it a symmetrical grind that works well for a broad range of street applications. It fits a wide variety of Chevrolet, Buick, and Checker vehicles from the 1960s and 70s, including popular models like the Chevrolet C10 pickup and Camaro.

When installing a camshaft, it's always a good idea to replace your lifters and check your valve springs to ensure they are compatible with the new cam's specifications. This camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
