The COMP CAMS Oldsmobile V8 Xtreme Hydraulic Camshaft (part number 42-224-4) is designed for classic Olds V8 engine builders who want to enhance street and strip performance while maintaining daily drivability. This hydraulic roller cam provides higher lift and duration than stock options, ensuring reliability and ease of installation typical of hydraulic cam systems.
The camshaft features an aggressive lobe profile that optimizes cylinder filling and exhaust scavenging during high-RPM operation. Its hydraulic roller design minimizes wear patterns and maintenance requirements compared to solid lifters, allowing for tighter valve clearances and reduced friction losses. COMP CAMS' precision manufacturing guarantees consistent lobe geometry and surface finish, which is crucial for compatibility with modern valve springs and lifter systems.
This camshaft is ideal for builders working on 350–455 Oldsmobile V8 platforms with stock or mildly modified cylinder heads and existing hydraulic cam galley systems. It is particularly beneficial for those restoring vintage Oldsmobile muscle cars or building restomod engines, providing a significant improvement in power delivery across the RPM band.
