Description

The Competition Cams CL12-242-2 Xtreme Energy camshaft and lifter kit is engineered for Small Block Chevy engines, offering enhanced performance for street and strip applications. This kit includes a camshaft, lifters, assembly lube, decals, and instructions. This hydraulic flat tappet camshaft features 268/280 degrees of advertised duration and 224/230 degrees at 0.050 inch lift, with a lift of 0.477/0.480 inches and a 110 Lobe Separation Angle (LSA). The operating RPM range for this camshaft is between 1,600 and 5,800 RPM. It is considered the largest camshaft suitable for a stock torque converter but performs better with a 2000+ RPM stall converter. Installation of this kit requires a valve spring upgrade. The product is compatible with a very extensive list of vehicle applications, primarily focusing on Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile, and Cadillac models from the 1950s through the 1990s equipped with Small Block Chevy engines. Specific fitment details are extensive and should be verified against your vehicle's specifications.
