Product Details

The COMP Cams Magnum 21-243-4 camshaft delivers proven performance gains for Chrysler 383-440 big block engines without the excessive wear associated with more aggressive profiles. This hydraulic flat tappet camshaft features a 253/253 duration rating, making it an excellent choice for street/strip applications where reliability and performance must coexist.

Key Features:

  • 253° intake and exhaust duration for balanced performance
  • Hydraulic flat tappet design for quiet, reliable operation
  • Optimized for engines with 9.5:1 or higher compression ratios
  • Delivers strong high-RPM power while maintaining valvetrain durability
  • Works best with aftermarket higher stall torque converters
  • Compatible with mild ratio rocker arms and traditional performance valve springs
  • Specifically engineered for Chrysler 383-440 cubic inch big block V8 engines

This Magnum series camshaft is ideal for high-compression builds that need to effectively bleed off cylinder pressure while maximizing top-end power. The conservative lobe profile ensures excellent performance without needlessly stressing valvetrain components, making it perfect for engines that see frequent use. When paired with appropriate supporting modifications including a higher stall converter and quality valve springs, the 21-243-4 transforms your Mopar big block into a responsive, powerful engine that's equally at home on the street or at the strip.
