COMP Cams Camshaft Kit CS XR264HR-12

If you're looking to wake up your older Small Block Chevrolet engine, this COMP Cams CS XR264HR-12 camshaft kit is a solid option. It's designed for '87 and later Gen 1 Small Block Chevy engines that came with a factory roller camshaft, like those found in many Chevrolet Camaros, Corvettes, and C/K series trucks from the late 80s and early 90s. This kit replaces your stock camshaft and associated valvetrain components with a performance-oriented setup that can offer improved throttle response and powerband characteristics.

This isn't just a camshaft; it's a complete valvetrain upgrade package. Inside this kit, you'll find the XR264HR-12 camshaft itself, along with new hydraulic roller lifters, valve springs, retainers, valve locks, and valve stem seals. It also includes a timing chain set to ensure your new camshaft is perfectly synchronized with your engine's rotation. COMP Cams includes assembly lube and decals to help with the installation process. The 'XE Computer Controlled' designation means this cam profile is optimized for engines managed by an electronic control unit, aiming for a good balance of performance and drivability.

When undertaking a camshaft swap, it's important to have all the necessary components ready. This kit aims to provide that, simplifying the process by bundling the critical parts together. While it's designed for a wide range of vehicles from the late 80s and early 90s, including models like the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and various C/K trucks, always double-check the specific fitment for your vehicle. This kit is a significant upgrade for those looking to enhance their engine's breathing and power output.
