COMP Cams Camshaft FW 270H-R14

When you're looking to wake up your Ford 5.0L or 351W engine that already has factory roller camshafts, this COMP Cams Magnum Computer Controlled Hydraulic Roller Camshaft is a solid choice. It's designed for vehicles with mild modifications like gears and mass air flow sensor upgrades, and it will give you a noticeable, yet still slight, idle. This camshaft is a direct fit for a wide range of Ford and Mercury vehicles from the mid-80s to the mid-90s, including popular models like the Ford Mustang, F-150, and Mercury Cougar.

This camshaft is built with a hydraulic roller design, which is known for its efficiency and ability to handle higher RPMs compared to flat tappet designs. The specific grind, the 270HR-14, is carefully calibrated to work well with computer-controlled systems and complements common upgrades such as changing rear-end gears and installing a mass air flow meter. While it offers improved performance characteristics, it maintains a slight idle, making it a practical choice for daily drivers or street-focused builds that see occasional spirited driving. It’s a well-built component that brings a bit more life to your engine without demanding extensive supporting modifications or resulting in an overly aggressive idle sound.

When installing this camshaft, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommended procedures to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Because this part is not CARB approved, it cannot be shipped to California. Always consult the COMP Cams installation instructions for detailed guidance on proper fitment and setup for your specific application.
