COMP Cams Camshaft CS XR292 R-10

Starting with the solid roller design, this COMP Cams Xtreme Energy camshaft is built for serious performance in Chevrolet Gen 1 Small Block engines. It features a 254/260 degree duration at 0.050 inch lift and a .632/.632 inch lift, making it a potent upgrade for Pro Street applications. This camshaft is designed to work best with engines that have 11:1 or higher compression ratios, a performance intake manifold, free-flowing exhaust, and a 3500 RPM stall torque converter. It's a significant step up from stock, intended for builds where maximum power output is the goal.

This camshaft is compatible with a wide range of Chevrolet Gen 1 Small Block engines, including popular displacements like the 283, 305, 327, 350, and 400 cubic inch V8s. However, it's crucial to verify your specific engine's configuration. It does not fit factory roller camshaft blocks from 1985 and newer, nor does it fit LS-based engines. Early 1955-1957 models require a specific oiling groove on the rear journal, and this particular part number does not include it; please contact us if your early block requires this feature. For optimal performance and to maintain warranty, this camshaft requires a Melanized or Nitrided distributor gear; cast iron or steel gears are not compatible and will void the warranty.

When installing this camshaft, remember that it's optimized for performance builds. Ensure you have the correct distributor gear to avoid issues. This is a serious performance part for enthusiasts looking to extract maximum power from their Chevrolet Small Block engine.
