Product Details
COMP Cams has built a reputation for making serious performance parts for race engines. This Nitrided Camshaft CS 296TLS-6 is a solid flat tappet camshaft built for drag racing applications, specifically for Chevrolet Gen 1 Small Block engines. It's intended for larger displacement engines, like 377-410 cubic inches, with high compression ratios (12:1) and stall converters around 4800 RPM, making it a good fit for big tracks where unrestricted performance is key.
The camshaft features a nitrided finish, which helps improve wear resistance and durability for the critical valve train components. For this camshaft to really shine, it's best paired with good cylinder heads and an upgraded intake manifold. This camshaft is designed for engines that use a flat tappet valvetrain, and it does not fit factory roller camshaft setups, including most Small Blocks from 1985 and newer, or any LS-based engines. Always confirm your engine's valvetrain type before installation.
