Product Details

The COMP Cams Thumpr 31-601-5 camshaft is engineered to deliver the aggressive, hard-hitting exhaust note and race car idle that enthusiasts crave in their muscle cars and street rods. Designed specifically for Ford 221-302 cubic inch engines, this hydraulic flat tappet camshaft features 227/241 degrees of advertised duration for an unmistakable performance sound and substantial power gains.

Key Features:

  • Hydraulic flat tappet design for Ford 221-302 engines
  • 227/241 degree advertised duration creates aggressive idle and performance sound
  • Early intake valve opening and extended exhaust duration for optimum valve overlap
  • Delivers excellent horsepower gains with a broad, usable torque curve
  • Perfect for street performance applications and muscle car builds

Important Installation Requirements:

  • Aftermarket torque converter required for proper drivability
  • Lower gear ratio recommended to keep engine in powerband
  • Reduced idle vacuum requires vacuum canister, pump, or hydroboost for power brake operation

The Thumpr series camshaft is ideal for enthusiasts seeking that classic high-performance idle sound combined with real-world power improvements. This camshaft delivers the aggressive character and throttle response that transforms your Ford small block into a true performance engine.

They have the best prices and fast shipping too.

Great price and fast shipping!

Best price I could find! Great customer service kept me informed through the whole order process to insure acuracy since it was being sent directly from the manufacture. Recieved my order in good time, right parts and no damage. Overall very satisfied and will be doing business again in the future.

Very competitive low prices and great product selection. Will definitely look to this vendor when purchasing automotive parts in the future.

Great prices and FAST shipping!! Definitely will buy products here again!

Ordered an EGR bug shield. After a short delay due to the Christmas holiday I called and customer service quickly tracked it down and it showed up a few days later. Best price on the internet!

Although there was a mix up with the shipping on my order customer service was helpful and expedited the solution and made it worth my trouble. I will be keeping Autoplicity in mind for any other parts I might need for my Jeep.
