About this part

Product Details

This COMP Cams FF 306A-R8 camshaft is a solid roller design, meaning it uses roller lifters and rocker arms for reduced friction and improved performance compared to flat tappet designs. It's specifically built for Ford's Big Block 385 series engines, including the 429 and 460 cubic inch displacements. This camshaft is intended for serious performance builds where maximum power is the goal.

For this camshaft to perform at its best, COMP Cams recommends it for engines that are 460 cubic inches or larger, running at least 11:1 compression. It's also designed to work well with a tunnel ram intake manifold setup, which is common in drag racing and other high-RPM applications. The camshaft features a 271-degree intake and 271-degree exhaust duration at .050 inch lift, providing a strong powerband that pulls hard through the upper RPM range. This makes it a popular choice for puller and mud racing where sustained high horsepower is critical.

When installing this camshaft, ensure your engine is properly set up to handle its aggressive profile. This includes using compatible roller lifters, pushrods, and rocker arms, as well as a strong valvetrain that can withstand the increased forces. Because this is a performance camshaft, it is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed guidance on proper setup and break-in procedures.
