Comp Cams Thumpr™ Retro-Fit Hydraulic Roller Camshafts for SB Chevy

The Muscle-car sound is back and nastier than ever, Thumpr™ Cams deliver incredible exhaust lope and impressive performance for your Small Block Chevy

Let’s face it, few things serve to grab our attention at a car show or cruise night more than a car with a thumping, high performance idle. In fact, one of the most frequent questions fielded when customers call Northern Auto Parts or the CAM HELP® tech line is “what camshaft will give my car that mean-sounding idle?” In Comps ongoing quest to provide customers with the performance that they demand, the COMP Cams® engineering team proudly introduces the Thumpr™ series of camshafts.

The Thumpr™ Camshafts are a new series of retro-fit hydraulic roller camshafts designed for use in 1955-1998 262-400 cubic inch Small Block Chevrolet engines that were originally equipped with flat tappet camshafts. The reason that the new Thumpr™ Camshafts have such an aggressive exhaust note is that the lobe profiles and grind characteristics chosen by the COMP Cams® engineers produce a combination of early exhaust valve opening, long exhaust duration and a generous amount of intake and exhaust overlap to maximize the rough-idling characteristics of the cams without negatively impacting the power output or streetability of the engine.

Thumpr™ Camshafts are available in three different grind profiles, each one of which will produce a rough, racy exhaust note and impressive amounts of horsepower and torque at a different rpm range. Their cutting-edge hydraulic roller design means that they will deliver a substantial power increase over an identical hydraulic flat tappet grind without sacrificing reliability or ease of maintenance. So look no further than the Thumpr™ line of camshafts - engineered to deliver that much sought-after ”thumping” idle quality to Small Block Chevy owners everywhere.
