COMP Cams Camshaft CS 280XFI H-13

This is the COMP Cams CS 280XFI H-13 camshaft, designed for a wide range of Chevrolet Small Block engines from 1958 through 2002, covering displacements from 262 to 400 cubic inches. It's built to work with modern induction systems, cylinder heads, and valve springs, offering a notable improvement in mid-range torque and exceptional top-end power. This camshaft is a popular choice for enthusiasts looking to extract more performance from their classic Chevy V8s, like those found in many Chevrolet C10 trucks, Caprice sedans, and Camaro models from the era.

The Xtreme Energy XFI series features intake lobes with increased lift and exhaust lobes with more area under the curve compared to the standard Xtreme series, which helps improve exhaust flow. This camshaft is specifically designed to be used with COMP Cams' Beehive valve springs and higher ratio Ultra Pro Magnum rocker arms for a significant upgrade in hydraulic flat tappet camshaft technology. To achieve its full potential, this camshaft requires supporting modifications including an upgraded fuel system or chip, a gear change, a plenum upgrade, and improved exhaust systems, along with a 2500+ RPM stall torque converter.

It's important to verify your engine's lifter type before installation, as many later model Small Blocks (especially from 1985 and newer) came with factory roller lifters, while earlier or some truck applications may still use flat tappet lifters. This camshaft is intended for flat tappet applications. If you're rebuilding the top end of your engine and aiming for a strong mid-range pull with serious top-end breathing, this camshaft offers a well-built option for your project.
