What type of valvetrain components are needed for this solid roller camshaft?

Solid roller camshafts require specific valvetrain components to function correctly and reliably. You will need solid roller lifters, roller rocker arms, and appropriate valve springs that can handle the higher lift and RPMs this camshaft is designed for. Always consult the manufacturer's installation guide for detailed specifications.

What is the recommended torque converter for this camshaft?

This camshaft is recommended for use with medium to large cubic inch engines that have a torque converter rated for 6000 RPM or higher. This ensures the converter can effectively transfer power at the higher engine speeds where this cam makes its power.

Are there any special break-in procedures for this camshaft?

Yes, solid roller camshafts typically require a specific break-in procedure to ensure the roller lifters properly seat against the cam lobes. It is crucial to follow the manufacturer's detailed instructions for the break-in process to prevent premature wear and ensure the camshaft's longevity.

Product Details

This COMP Cams 281/288 solid roller camshaft, part number 20-716-9, is built for serious performance in Chrysler 273-360 cubic inch LA engines. With its 281 degrees of intake duration and 288 degrees of exhaust duration at .050 lift, this camshaft is designed to make power in the upper RPM range, making it a strong choice for drag racing, super gas, or fast bracket applications. It's intended for use with medium to large displacement engines that are paired with a torque converter rated for 6000 RPM or higher, ensuring it can handle the demands of competitive driving.

The solid roller design means you're getting less valvetrain friction and the ability to achieve higher lift and duration compared to hydraulic or flat tappet cams, which translates directly to more power. This camshaft is a popular option for builders looking to extract maximum performance from their Mopar LA small blocks. It's important to note that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For optimal performance and reliability, ensure your engine is set up with appropriate valve springs, lifters, and pushrods that can handle the stresses of a solid roller valvetrain.

This camshaft fits a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth vehicles from the 1960s through the 1990s, including models like the Dodge Challenger, Plymouth Barracuda, and Chrysler Cordoba. When installing, always refer to the manufacturer's detailed instructions to ensure proper valvetrain setup and break-in procedure, which is critical for the longevity of a solid roller camshaft.
