COMP Cams Camshaft Kit FW XE274HR-12

This COMP Cams XE274HR-12 camshaft kit is built around a hydraulic roller camshaft featuring 224 degrees of intake duration and 232 degrees of exhaust duration at .050 inch lift. This specific lobe profile is designed for computer-controlled Ford 5.0L engines, offering a noticeable bump in performance without sacrificing drivability. It’s a popular choice for those looking to wake up their engine, especially when paired with other supporting modifications.

When you choose this K-Kit, you're getting a comprehensive package designed to make your camshaft upgrade smoother. It includes not just the camshaft itself, but also the necessary lifters, valve springs, retainers, valve locks, and valve stem seals. You'll also find a timing chain set to ensure proper synchronization, assembly lube for a clean installation, and even decals and instructions to guide you through the process. This kit is engineered to work well with a 2500+ stall torque converter and 3.55-3.73 rear axle gears, and it really shines when combined with improved cylinder heads, intake manifold, and fuel system upgrades.

This camshaft kit is intended for a wide range of Ford and Mercury vehicles from the mid-80s through the mid-90s, including popular models like the Mustang, F-150, and Thunderbird. While it’s not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California, it represents a significant step up in performance for many classic Ford V8s. Ensure you have the supporting modifications and drivetrain components in place to take full advantage of the XE274HR-12’s capabilities.
