Product Details

This COMP Cams High Energy camshaft is designed for Ford 4.0L 6-cylinder engines, specifically fitting the 1990-2000 Ford Ranger, as well as the Ford Aerostar, Ford Explorer, and Mercury Mountaineer from similar years. If you're looking to improve your truck's low-end grunt and pull through the mid-range, this hydraulic roller camshaft is a solid option. It's known to work well in these vehicles, especially when paired with an aftermarket engine chip that can help optimize its performance characteristics.

The High Energy series from COMP Cams focuses on delivering strong torque and improved mid-range power, making it a great choice for daily drivers or trucks used for hauling and towing. The 215/224 duration at .050 inch lift, combined with its hydraulic roller design, means it offers better performance and efficiency compared to older flat tappet camshafts. This design also typically leads to less wear over time. For best results and to fully realize the potential of this camshaft, it's recommended to use it in conjunction with an aftermarket engine chip to properly tune the fuel and ignition timing for the camshaft's new specifications.

When installing this camshaft, ensure you follow all manufacturer guidelines for proper break-in procedures to ensure longevity. While this camshaft offers a notable improvement in torque and mid-range performance, it is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Please verify fitment for your specific vehicle application before purchase.
