Oldsmobile 455ci - Fortified 455
|
After establishing the baseline performance of the motor, we replaced the old cam with a COMP Cams Xtreme Energy 284 hydraulic flat-tappet camshaft. This cam will give .240/.246 lift and duration at 50 degrees, with a gross valve lift of .541 inch on the intake and .544 inch on the exhaust side. Lobe separation is 110 degrees. The new cam was ordered as part of a kit that contained a new true double-roller timing chain, new valvesprings, the correct valve locks, and retainers. In addition to the new cam, we also installed COMP's Magnum roller rockers, pushrods, and guideplates. The roller rockers are considerably lighter than the stock cast rocker arms and will reduce friction in the valvetrain. View Related Article
