Product Details

This COMP Cams C61 280B-6 camshaft is a solid flat tappet design intended for Chevrolet inline-6 engines, specifically the 194 and 250 cubic inch displacements. It's built for performance applications where a broad torque range is beneficial, making it a solid option for 1/8 mile drag racing or 1/4 to 3/8 mile oval track use. This camshaft fits a wide variety of classic Chevrolet, Buick, and Checker vehicles from the 1960s and 1970s, including popular models like the Chevrolet C10 Pickup, Camaro, and Chevelle.

The C61 280B-6 features a 242 degrees of intake duration and 246 degrees of exhaust duration at .050 inch lift. This specification helps create a wide powerband, allowing your engine to pull strongly across a broader RPM range than a stock camshaft. Because it's a solid lifter camshaft, it requires more frequent valve adjustments compared to hydraulic lifters, but it can often achieve higher RPM limits and more aggressive valve events. This camshaft is well-suited for builders looking to extract more performance from their inline-6 engine for specific racing applications.

When installing this camshaft, remember that solid lifter camshafts require careful setup and regular maintenance to perform at their best. It's also important to note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper procedure and recommended components.
