COMP Cams Camshaft FF 288BR-8

This COMP Cams FF 288BR-8 camshaft is a solid roller design, meaning it uses roller lifters to reduce friction and allow for more aggressive lobe profiles compared to flat tappet cams. This specific grind, with a 252-degree intake duration and 260-degree exhaust duration at .050 inch lift, is built to generate significant torque and power, especially in Ford 429 and 460 Big Block engines. It's intended for applications with a single carburetor and a compression ratio of 10:1 or higher, making it a strong choice for puller and mud race setups.

The solid roller design is key here; it allows for higher lift and faster ramp speeds, which translates directly into better cylinder filling and more efficient combustion. This translates to noticeable gains in both low-end grunt and top-end horsepower. While it requires a dedicated solid roller valvetrain setup, the performance benefits are substantial for engines built for demanding use. COMP Cams is well-known for their performance camshafts, and this one is engineered to extract serious performance from your Ford big block.

Keep in mind that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. It's designed for race or off-road use where maximum performance is the priority. Ensure your engine's valvetrain components are compatible with a solid roller setup, including lifters, pushrods, and valve springs, to get the most out of this camshaft and ensure its longevity.
