Product Details

The COMP Cams 12-515-20 is a high-performance solid flat tappet camshaft engineered specifically for drag racing applications in Chevrolet small block engines. This aggressive cam profile delivers exceptional power output with tight valve lash specifications for maximum performance and consistency on the strip.

Key Specifications:

  • Advertised Duration: 259? intake / 266? exhaust
  • Solid flat tappet design for drag race applications
  • Tight lash configuration for consistent valve timing
  • Direct replacement for Chevrolet small block V8 engines (262-400ci)
  • Requires solid lifters and proper valvetrain components
  • Designed for maximum horsepower and torque in racing conditions

This camshaft is ideal for serious drag racing builds where consistent performance and durability under extreme conditions are critical. The solid flat tappet design provides direct mechanical actuation without hydraulic cushioning, allowing for aggressive valve timing and higher RPM capability. Proper break-in procedures and compatible valvetrain components are essential for optimal performance and longevity.

Note: Professional installation recommended. Requires compatible valve springs, retainers, and pushrods rated for solid flat tappet operation.
