The FC 280H camshaft is designed for performance and is known to produce a rough idle. This is typical for more aggressive camshaft profiles that prioritize top-end power.

What other modifications are recommended when installing this camshaft?

For optimal performance with this camshaft, it's recommended to pair it with a torque converter with a 2500+ RPM stall speed, headers, and appropriate rear-end gearing. A compression ratio between 9:1 and 10:1 is also ideal.

Product Details

If you're looking to build a street machine that really moves, a camshaft upgrade is a key part of the equation. This COMP Cams K-Kit, specifically the FC 280H grind, is designed for Ford 351 Cleveland, 351 Modified, and 400M engines. It's a popular choice when you're aiming for a noticeable bump in power, especially when paired with other performance upgrades like headers and a gear ratio change.

This isn't just a camshaft; it's a complete package to get you started. Inside this kit, you'll find the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, valve springs, retainers, valve locks, and valve stem seals. It also includes a timing chain set to ensure your valvetrain stays synchronized. For flat tappet applications, assembly lube is included to help with the installation process. COMP Cams also throws in decals and instructions to guide you through the job.

The FC 280H camshaft is known for its aggressive profile, which translates to a rough idle and a strong performance feel. It works well in applications with a 2500+ RPM stall torque converter, a compression ratio between 9:1 and 10:1, and appropriate gearing. This kit fits a wide range of Ford vehicles from the late 60s through the early 80s, including models like the Ford F-150, Mercury Cougar, and DeTomaso Pantera, making it a versatile option for many classic performance builds.
