Product Details

This COMP Cams kit gives you the essential parts to upgrade your Pontiac V8 engine. Inside the box, you'll find the XE268H-10 camshaft, a set of hydraulic lifters, a timing chain set, assembly lube, decals, and instructions. This kit is designed for Pontiac 265 to 455 cubic inch V8 engines, fitting a wide range of vehicles from the 1950s through the early 1980s, including popular models like the Pontiac Firebird, Grand Prix, and LeMans.

The XE268H-10 camshaft is part of COMP Cams' Xtreme Energy line, known for providing a noticeable bump in performance for street machines. It's engineered with a 224/230 degree intake/exhaust duration and .480/.480 lift, which contributes to a slightly rougher idle than stock, a characteristic often desired in performance street applications. This camshaft is best suited for engines with a 2000 RPM or higher stall torque converter, allowing it to operate effectively in its power band. The included timing set ensures proper synchronization between your camshaft and crankshaft, a critical component for engine timing and performance.

When installing this kit, remember that it's intended for street performance and will produce a more aggressive idle sound. Ensure your torque converter is rated for at least 2000 RPM to take full advantage of the camshaft's capabilities. This kit is a solid option for enthusiasts looking to wake up their classic Pontiac V8.
