Product Details

If you're looking to get more low-end grunt and better fuel economy out of your Chevrolet or GMC Big Block Gen VI engine, this COMP Cams Xtreme Energy camshaft is a solid choice. This hydraulic roller camshaft is designed to wake up the torque right off idle, making it feel much more responsive in everyday driving scenarios. It’s a popular upgrade for those who want a noticeable improvement in pulling power without sacrificing too much drivability or fuel efficiency.

The XR252HR-10 features a 200-degree intake duration and a 206-degree exhaust duration, measured at .050 inch lift. This specific lobe separation angle, combined with its hydraulic roller design, helps it produce strong torque from very low RPMs and maintain that power band effectively. This means you’ll feel a difference when accelerating from a stop or when towing. The design also aims for improved mileage, which is a notable benefit for a performance camshaft.

This camshaft fits a range of 1996-2000 Chevrolet and GMC trucks and vans, including models like the C/K 2500 and 3500 series, Suburban, and Express/Savana 3500 vans. It’s important to note that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For optimal performance and longevity, ensure you have the correct valve springs and other supporting components installed, as recommended by COMP Cams.
