What is included in the COMP Cams CS 268H Camshaft Kit?

This kit comes with the CS 268H camshaft, a set of lifters, a timing chain set, assembly lube, and decals. It's a comprehensive package to help you with your camshaft installation.

How can I tell if my Chevrolet engine has a flat tappet or roller camshaft?

The best way to confirm is to remove the intake manifold or timing cover. Factory roller camshafts were gradually introduced in 305s and 350s starting in the mid-80s, while many trucks and SUVs continued with flat tappet cams until the mid-90s.

What kind of idle can I expect with this camshaft?

This camshaft is known for producing a choppy idle, which is often desired by enthusiasts looking for a more aggressive sound and performance feel from their engine.

Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance engine parts, and this CS 268H camshaft kit is built for Chevrolet Small Block Gen 1 engines. If you're looking to get more out of your engine, whether for street use, towing, or even some performance applications, this kit can make a notable difference. It's designed to work with a stock torque converter and will give you that classic choppy idle that many enthusiasts appreciate.

This kit includes the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, a timing chain set, assembly lube, and decals to help you get the job done. The camshaft has a 218/218 duration at 0.050 inch lift, making it a popular choice for those wanting improved performance without going too radical. It's considered the biggest cam for inboard/outboard marine applications, offering good economy and ski performance, and it can also be used for some street performance builds.

This kit fits a wide range of Chevrolet Small Block Gen 1 engines, including popular displacements like the 350, 305, and 400. It's important to verify your engine uses a flat tappet camshaft, as this kit is not compatible with factory roller camshafts found in many 1985 and newer GM vehicles, or the LS-based engines. If you're unsure, removing the intake or timing cover is the best way to confirm.
