COMP Cams Camshaft CS XR294HR-10

This COMP Cams Xtreme Energy camshaft features a 242-degree intake duration and a 248-degree exhaust duration at .050 inch lift. This specific lobe separation of 110 degrees is chosen to work well with OE roller lifters in Small Block Chevrolet engines from 1987 and newer, excluding LT-1 and LS1 variants. It’s built for street and strip applications where you’re looking for a noticeable bump in performance over stock.

For this camshaft to perform as intended, your engine should have at least 9.5:1 compression, and you’ll want to pair it with an intake manifold, headers, and a torque converter with a stall speed of 3200 RPM or higher. It also benefits from a gear ratio change to help put the power down effectively. This camshaft is designed to give your engine a more aggressive sound and feel, especially at higher RPMs.

This is a hydraulic roller camshaft, which means it uses roller lifters to reduce friction compared to flat tappet designs. This design contributes to better performance and longevity. It's a popular choice for enthusiasts looking to upgrade their classic Chevrolet or GMC trucks, muscle cars, and other vehicles equipped with the Small Block Chevy engine. Remember that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
