COMP Cams Camshaft CB 285B-8

This COMP Cams CB 285B-8 camshaft is a solid flat tappet design intended for Chevrolet Big Block engines, specifically the 396 to 454 cubic inch displacements. It's built for demanding applications like drag racing, puller trucks, mud bogging, and oval track racing, aiming to deliver strong torque and power. This camshaft is designed for engines with a 10:1 or higher compression ratio, making it suitable for performance builds where increased output is the goal.

The CB 285B-8 is well-suited for 396-402 cubic inch engines, providing an improved powerband for those looking to get more out of their Big Block. It's a popular choice for builders who want a camshaft that offers a noticeable difference in performance for competition use. Remember, this camshaft is designed for engines originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts and requires appropriate valve train components.

Please note that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Also, for 1965-1966 396 Big Block engines that have an oiling groove in the rear journal, this specific camshaft will not fit. If your engine requires that oiling groove, you will need to contact COMP Cams directly for assistance with a compatible part number.
