Product Details
This COMP Cams CS 280AH-8 camshaft is designed for Chevrolet Small Block engines, specifically those using a hydraulic flat tappet valvetrain. It's a popular choice for oval track racing and heavy vehicles where improved performance is needed. This camshaft features a 232-degree intake duration and 237-degree exhaust duration with a .050 lift, offering a noticeable bump in power over stock configurations.
Built with durability in mind, this camshaft is well-suited for the demands of racing and heavy-duty applications. It's important to note that this camshaft is intended for blocks that do not have factory roller lifter provisions or for those that have been converted to a flat tappet system. While many later model GM engines came with roller lifters, some trucks and SUVs from the mid-80s to mid-90s still utilized flat tappet setups. Always confirm your block's configuration before installation.
For optimal performance and longevity, ensure you have the correct valve springs and lifters to match this camshaft's specifications. It's also recommended to use a quality break-in oil and follow the manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure to properly seat the flat tappet components.
