Description
Camshaft - Xtreme Energy - Hydraulic Flat Tappet - Lift 0.515 / 0.520 in - Duration 268 / 280 - 110 LSA - 1600 / 5800 RPM - Big Block Chevy - Each
XE 224/230 HFTBBC
Featuring a quicker valve opening, the Xtreme Energy camshaft profile provides increased responsiveness and more area under the lift curve than older, slower grinds. Designed to increase performance without sacrificing driveability and creature comforts, the Xtreme Energy grind family offers gains in torque and horsepower while still delivering adequate vacuum for power brakes and other vacuum dependent accessories. Xtreme Energy camshafts work great in carbureted applications, but offer the best performance with aftermarket intake manifolds, lower gear ratios, headers and free flowing exhaust.
Additional Information
Good for street machines, slightly rough idle, stock converter will work but best with 1800+ stall.
