Product Details

When you're ready to give your Ford small block engine a serious performance boost, this COMP Cams Camshaft Kit FS 283Th R7 Thumper is what you're looking for. Inside this kit, you'll find everything needed to swap out your old camshaft and related components for an improved setup. This kit includes the camshaft itself, a full set of lifters, valve springs, retainers, valve locks, and valve stem seals. You also get a timing chain set to ensure your timing is spot on, plus assembly lube and decals to finish the job. It's designed for Ford 221, 255, 260, 289, and 302 engines, fitting a wide range of vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Fairlane, and Galaxie, as well as Mercury Cougar models.

This particular camshaft, the Thumpr 227/241 Hydraulic Roller, is built for high-performance street use. It's known for producing that desirable choppy, thumping idle that enthusiasts love. While it can work with a stock torque converter, you'll see the best results with a converter rated for 2000 RPM or higher, along with appropriate gearing. This combination helps the camshaft perform at its peak, making a noticeable difference in how your engine runs and sounds.
