COMP Cams Camshaft Kit CB 283T HR-7 T T

This COMP Cams K-Kit, part number K11-600-8, centers around the CB 283T HR-7 T T hydraulic roller camshaft. It's built for Chevrolet Big Block engines originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts, specifically the 396 to 454 cubic inch displacements. This kit is a comprehensive solution for those looking to significantly upgrade their engine's performance, offering a noticeable improvement in power and a distinct, choppy idle characteristic that many enthusiasts seek.

The Thumpr camshaft design is intended for high-performance street applications. While it can work with a stock torque converter, it really shines when paired with a converter rated for 2000 RPM or higher, along with appropriate gearing. This setup allows the camshaft's aggressive profile to be utilized more effectively, maximizing its potential for improved throttle response and overall power output. The kit itself is very complete, including not just the camshaft and hydraulic roller lifters, but also the necessary valve springs, retainers, valve locks, and valve stem seals. To ensure a smooth installation and proper break-in, it also comes with a timing chain set, assembly lube, and detailed instructions. This means you're getting nearly everything needed to perform a professional camshaft upgrade.

This kit is designed to fit a wide range of Chevrolet vehicles from the late 1960s through the mid-1980s that came with the Big Block engine, such as the Chevrolet Impala, Chevelle, and C10 Pickup. It's important to note that this kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations. Always refer to the included instructions for the most accurate installation procedures and break-in requirements.
