COMP Cams Camshaft Kit FW XR288Rf-HR-10

When you're looking to get more out of your Ford 351W engine, this COMP Cams Xtreme Energy Camshaft Kit is a solid choice. What you get in this kit is a complete package to get you started: the camshaft itself, a set of lifters, a new timing chain set, assembly lube to make sure everything goes together smoothly, and even some decals to show off your upgrade. This isn't just a single part; it's a coordinated system designed to work together for improved engine performance.

This particular camshaft, the XR288Rf-HR-10, is built for a hydraulic roller setup and features a 236-degree intake duration and a 240-degree exhaust duration. COMP Cams specifies this kit for engines with a 9:1 or higher compression ratio, and it really shines when paired with an upgraded intake manifold, headers, a torque converter rated for 2800 RPM or higher, and rear gears of 3.73 or lower. You can expect a noticeable improvement in power, especially in the mid-range and upper RPMs, though it does come with a rougher idle that's characteristic of performance cams like this. It's a popular option for those building street/strip machines that need to perform well both on the road and at the drag strip.

Keep in mind that this kit is not CARB approved, so it cannot be shipped to California. It's important to follow the included instructions carefully during installation to ensure proper timing and operation. This kit is a significant step up for your 351W, offering a substantial performance boost when installed correctly with the supporting modifications.
