COMP Cams Camshaft CS 272TLS-6

This COMP Cams CS 272TLS-6 camshaft features a 242/250 degree duration at .050 inch lift, a solid flat tappet design, and a 112-degree lobe separation angle. It’s built for Chevrolet Small Block engines, specifically those from the GEN 1 family, including popular displacements like the 350 and 400 cubic inch variants. This camshaft is intended for applications where you're running a heavier car on a 1/4 to 3/8 mile track with limited intake and carburetor setups, aiming for a noticeable bump in performance over stock.

When you're looking for an improved camshaft for your classic Chevy, COMP Cams is a well-known name. This particular grind is designed to work well with specific engine builds, offering a more aggressive profile than a stock cam. It’s important to note that this camshaft is for flat tappet engines; it does not fit factory roller camshaft blocks from 1985 and newer, or LS-based engines. Always confirm your engine's configuration before installation, as GM transitioned to roller cams gradually through the 80s and 90s.

This camshaft is a solid option for builders looking to extract more power from their GEN 1 Small Block. Remember that early 1955-1957 SBC engines have a rear journal oiling groove that this specific part number does not accommodate. If your engine requires that groove, you'll need to contact us for a different part number. Also, this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
