COMP Cams Nitrided Camshaft CB XE268H-1

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance parts that help engines run better. This Xtreme Energy camshaft is a popular choice for street machines looking for more power from their Chevrolet Big Block engines, like those found in a 1967 Chevelle or a 1975 Impala. It's designed for engines originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts, and the nitrided finish adds a layer of durability to the lobes.

This camshaft features a 224/230 degree intake/exhaust duration and is a hydraulic flat tappet design. While it can work with a stock torque converter, you'll get the best performance with a converter rated for 1800 RPM or higher. Expect a slightly rougher idle than stock, which is common for performance cams like this one. The nitriding process helps the cam withstand the wear and tear of regular use, making it a solid option for your build.

This camshaft fits a wide range of Chevrolet vehicles from the 1960s through the 1990s, including models like the C10 Pickup, Camaro, and Corvette. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper setup and break-in procedures.
