Xtreme Hyd. Roller Cam - SBC 292XFI HR-13

The COMP CAMS Xtreme Hydraulic Roller Cam for small-block Chevy (SBC) 292XFI is a high-performance camshaft engineered for naturally aspirated and fuel-injected GM LT-Series engines from 1992–1997. This hydraulic roller design delivers 0.584-inch intake and 0.579-inch exhaust lift with 292-degree intake and 300-degree exhaust duration, optimized for a broad powerband spanning 2200 to 6200 RPM. The 113-degree lobe separation angle balances street manners with responsive mid-range and top-end power, making it suitable for both cruiser builds and moderate-performance applications.

Hydraulic roller cam technology eliminates the need for adjustable pushrods and provides consistent valve train stability across varying engine speeds and loads. The XFI (extended fuel injection) profile accommodates the complex breathing demands of fuel-injected LT-Series engines, delivering smooth idle quality and improved fuel economy compared to carbureted grinding. This specification sheet makes it an excellent choice for engine builders seeking a versatile cam that doesn't require extensive valvetrain modifications or expensive upgrade components. The 8.79-pound weight is typical for precision-ground camshafts of this class.

Builders restoring or upgrading 1992–1997 small-block Chevy LT-Series engines—whether in Camaros, Corvettes, or swap applications—turn to COMP CAMS hydraulic roller profiles when daily driveability and reliable performance are priorities. The 292XFI specification sits in the sweet spot between stock-replacement mildness and radical street-strip grinds, making it accessible to first-time cam installations while offering enough aggression to reward a quality induction and exhaust system. Proper installation with fresh pushrods, rocker arms, and a valve adjustment ensures consistent performance and longevity.
