Product Details

This is the COMP Cams FS Nostalgia Plus camshaft, part number 31-671-4, designed for Ford 221, 255, 260, 289, and 302 small block V8 engines. If you're looking to get more performance out of your classic Ford, this camshaft aims to give you that classic 271 HP 289 cam character with improved modern tight lash operation.

This camshaft is built to provide outstanding power gains. The 'Nostalgia Plus' designation means it's intended to replicate the feel and sound of a popular vintage performance cam, but with updated lobe profiles that offer better stability and a tighter valve lash adjustment. This can lead to a more consistent engine operation and potentially quieter running compared to original cams.

It's a solid flat tappet camshaft, so keep in mind that proper break-in procedures with a high-zinc oil are crucial to prevent premature wear. This camshaft fits a wide range of Ford vehicles from the early 1960s through the early 1990s, including popular models like the Ford F-150, Bronco, and various Fairlane and Mustang applications.
