About this part

Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance valvetrain components, and their Xtreme Energy line of camshafts is a popular choice for enthusiasts looking to get more out of their engines. This particular camshaft, the 290HR-12, is a hydraulic roller camshaft designed for GM LT1 and LT4 engines. It features a 230-degree intake duration and a 244-degree exhaust duration, which are aggressive specs aimed at increasing airflow and power.

This camshaft is intended for builds that already include supporting modifications like custom tuning, headers, and a higher stall torque converter (2200 RPM or more). Because of its aggressive profile, expect a noticeable, rough idle, which is characteristic of cams designed for maximum performance. It's important to note that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. It is designed to fit a range of vehicles including the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Pontiac Firebird, among others.

When installing this camshaft, ensure you have the necessary supporting modifications and a proper tune to take full advantage of its capabilities. This is a significant upgrade for those seeking to push the performance limits of their LT1 or LT4 engine.
