COMP Cams Camshaft Kit CB 280H-R10

This is the COMP Cams Magnum 224/224 hydraulic roller camshaft kit, part number SK11-430-8. It's designed for Chevrolet Big Block engines, specifically the 396 through 454 cubic inch V8s that originally came with flat tappet camshafts. This kit is a great choice for building street machines that you want to have a noticeable, rough idle and strong performance characteristics.

The kit includes the camshaft itself, a set of hydraulic roller lifters, a timing chain set, assembly lube, and decals. Using a hydraulic roller setup like this can offer improved performance and durability over older flat tappet designs. For this camshaft to perform best, you'll want to pair it with headers, a compression ratio of 9.5:1 or higher, and a torque converter with at least a 2000 RPM stall speed. Lower gearing in the rear axle is also recommended for all applications to help put the power down effectively.

Keep in mind that this camshaft is intended for performance applications and will result in a rough idle. It's also important to note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for proper installation and break-in procedures.
