Product Details

The COMP Cams Xtreme Energy 218/224 hydraulic roller camshaft is engineered for Big Block Chevrolet 396-454 engines seeking enhanced performance without sacrificing street manners. This camshaft features an aggressive valve opening profile that delivers increased throttle responsiveness and more area under the lift curve compared to older, conventional camshaft designs.

Key Features:

  • 218°/224° advertised duration for excellent mid-range torque and top-end horsepower
  • Hydraulic roller design provides reduced friction and improved durability over flat tappet designs
  • Quicker valve opening profile increases engine responsiveness across the RPM range
  • Maintains adequate vacuum for power brakes and vacuum-operated accessories
  • Preserves streetability and driveability for daily-driven applications
  • Compatible with stock or aftermarket valve train components

Recommended Applications:

  • Street performance and hot rod builds with mild to moderate modifications
  • Best performance with aftermarket intake manifolds, headers, and free-flowing exhaust systems
  • Optimized for carbureted applications with lower rear gear ratios
  • Ideal for engines seeking noticeable performance gains while retaining street manners

The Xtreme Energy camshaft family is designed to deliver measurable gains in torque and horsepower while maintaining the creature comforts that make your performance vehicle enjoyable for street use. This camshaft requires hydraulic roller lifters and appropriate valvetrain components for proper installation.
