What does 'nitrided' mean for this camshaft?

Nitriding is a heat treatment process that hardens the surface of the camshaft. This makes it more resistant to wear and tear, which is beneficial for performance applications.

Is this camshaft compatible with my engine if it has roller lifters?

No, this camshaft is specifically designed for Chevrolet Big Block engines that were originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts and lifters. It is not compatible with roller lifter setups.

Can this camshaft be shipped to California?

No, this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.

Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance valvetrain components, and this Nitrided Camshaft CB 396/375 is built for serious drag racing applications. This camshaft is specifically designed for Chevrolet Big Block engines, covering the 396 to 454 cubic inch displacements. It's intended as a 'stocker' camshaft, meaning it aims to provide improved performance while staying within certain class rules for drag racing.

The 'nitrided' treatment on this camshaft means the surface has been hardened through a heat process, which helps to increase wear resistance and durability, especially important for the aggressive operation of a performance camshaft. This particular grind, the CB 396/375, is a popular choice for those looking to get more out of their Big Block Chevy in a drag racing environment. It's designed to work with engines originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts, so be sure that's what your engine uses before installation.

Keep in mind that this camshaft is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. If you're building a drag-focused Big Block Chevy and need a camshaft that offers a solid performance upgrade with improved wear resistance, this COMP Cams option is worth considering.
