Product Details

If you're looking to wake up your Ford 429 or 460 big block engine, this COMP Cams camshaft kit is a solid option. This kit is designed for those who want a noticeable bump in performance, whether you're building a street machine with a rough idle or powering a jet boat with an A or B impeller for pleasure, skiing, or performance use. It's a popular choice for those seeking improved power delivery.

This SK-Kit comes with everything you need to get started: the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, a timing chain set, assembly lube, decals, and instructions. The Magnum/Marine 230/230 hydraulic flat tappet camshaft is engineered to work well with a 2500+ RPM torque converter, headers, and a compression ratio of around 9:1. This combination helps to achieve that aggressive idle and improved throttle response you're looking for. It's a well-built kit that offers a significant change from stock performance.

This camshaft kit fits a wide range of Ford vehicles from the late 60s through the mid-90s, including popular models like the Ford F-150, F-250, and LTD, as well as Lincoln Continental. While it offers a rough idle, which is characteristic of performance cams, it's a trade-off many enthusiasts make for the improved performance. Make sure to consult the included instructions for proper installation and break-in procedures.
