Ford Inline 6 Cam - 260H-10

The Ford Inline 6 Cam - 260H-10 by COMP CAMS is a high-energy hydraulic flat-tappet camshaft engineered for classic Ford straight-six engines seeking aggressive performance gains without sacrificing streetability. This cam is designed for builders and enthusiasts who want to unlock mid-range torque and top-end horsepower while maintaining reliable cold-start and idle characteristics. Whether you're restoring a vintage Ford 200 or 250 cubic-inch six-cylinder or building a period-correct performance engine, the 260H-10 delivers the lift and duration profile needed for noticeable power increases.

The 260H-10 specification indicates a 0.260-inch valve lift with a hydraulic flat-tappet design, making it compatible with stock valve train geometry and requiring no expensive rocker conversion. The high-energy grind provides extended valve overlap and duration timing that pulls harder through mid-range RPM, ideal for street and light strip applications. COMP CAMS' precision-ground lobes ensure consistent lobe separation geometry, proper valve event sequencing, and minimal wear on lifters and pushrods. The camshaft's flat-tappet construction maintains traditional Ford engine architecture while delivering measurable gains in power band response and fuel delivery optimization across the RPM range.

This cam suits Ford 200 and 250 cubic-inch inline six engines from 1962 through early 1980s applications, making it ideal for street rods, vintage truck builds, and classic car restorations seeking authentic performance without modern EFI complexity. Installation requires proper valve lash adjustment and quality pushrods; pairing with a performance intake manifold and carburetor tuning maximizes the cam's potential. Buyers should confirm their engine displacement and verify stock valve train clearances before purchase to ensure optimal fitment and longevity.
