The COMP Cams Xtreme Energy 12-771-8 is a high-performance solid roller camshaft designed specifically for small block Chevrolet engines. This aggressive cam features 242° intake duration and 248° exhaust duration at .050" lift, delivering excellent mid-range to upper RPM power for street/strip applications.

Key Specifications:

  • Intake Duration: 242° @ .050"
  • Exhaust Duration: 248° @ .050"
  • Solid roller design for maximum performance and durability
  • Optimized lobe profiles for Xtreme Energy series performance characteristics
  • Designed for small block Chevrolet V8 engines (262-400 cubic inches)

Performance Features:

  • Aggressive profile delivers strong mid-range to high-RPM power
  • Solid roller construction eliminates flat tappet wear concerns
  • Xtreme Energy lobe design maximizes cylinder pressure and throttle response
  • Ideal for engines with aftermarket cylinder heads, headers, and intake manifolds

Autoplicity had the item I wanted at a cheaper price than anybody online or in stores. They didn't have the item in stock, but they were very informative as to the status of my item. They have shown unheard of customer service via email since the inception of my order. I will definitely do business with them again.

Quick and easy

cant wait

Ordered a sling to store my roof rack. There was an issue with the supplier which was quickly resolved by the Autoplicity staff. Great customer service -- most responsive I've ever seen.<br><br>Best prices around.

Received the order in 3 business day. Price was the best. Tried the VIAIR 400p that I order and found it to me my expetations.
