Product Details

COMP Cams is a well-known name in the performance aftermarket, especially for their valvetrain components. This CRB3 Xtq286S-8 camshaft is a solid flat tappet design, often referred to as a mechanical flat tappet, and it's built for drag racing applications. It's designed as a good bracket cam, meaning it offers a broad powerband suitable for bracket racing where consistency is key. You'll want at least 10.5:1 compression for this cam to perform optimally, and it pairs well with a torque converter stall speed of 3500 RPM or higher in a 440 engine, or around 3800 RPM in a 383 engine.

This camshaft features a 3-bolt design, which is standard for many Chrysler B and RB series engines. It's a direct fit for Chrysler 383, 400, 413, 426 Wedge, and 440 cubic inch engines. The camshaft has a duration of 256 degrees on the intake and 266 degrees on the exhaust, with a lobe separation angle that contributes to its performance characteristics. Remember, this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
