2012 Chevrolet Corvette Performance Engines

HYDRAULIC – Mutha’ Thumpr: High performance street/strip, needs 9:1 compression, 2500+ stall, intake, gears and headers, rough idle.

Ideal for use with mainly stock components like rocker arms, intake manifolds, cylinder heads, compression ratio, torque converters and rear gear ratios, the High Energy camshaft grind family is a great choice for street performance applications.

The most recent advancements in camshaft engineering are utilized by COMP Cams Xtreme Marine camshafts. Compared to cams of the same duration at.050 in., their aggressive lobe shape increases engine suction and yields superior throttle response and top-end horsepower. You can always experience Xtreme performance on the water with these cams, which are suitable for both race and leisure boat applications. COMP Cams provides camshafts for your watercraft that date back to the 1950s, ranging from hydraulic and mechanical to flat and roller tappet.

SMALL BLOCK CHEVY HYDRAULIC CAM AND LIFTER KIT – Thumpr : High performance street, stock converter ok, best with 2000+ converter and gears. Choppy/thumping idle.

HYDRAULIC ROLLER – XFI XE-R: High rpm street/strip with XE-R lobe designs. Requires custom tuning.

Single Outer Valve Springs from COMP Cams allow you to build the perfect spring assembly for your application. The valve spring creation process is far more involved than most people realize. Selecting the right metal stock and creating the best design is not done by chance. COMP Cams has developed a process that creates the highest quality valve spring available. The result is a product that meets and exceeds the expectations of today’s engine builders and racers.

“This Beehive Valve Spring Kit for LS engines is designed for hydraulic roller cams and includes carefully matched Beehive Springs, steel retainers, locks, seals and spring seats. With a .625″” maximum lift, these Beehive Valve Springs deliver increased valve train stability and a much lighter valve train. This is achieved with less spring pressure for better valve control and reduced weight of both the spring and retainer. The unique Beehive shape handles valve train stress more efficiently to eliminate damaging harmonics and increases high RPM horsepower and durability. The oval/multi-arc wire shape places the maximum area of the wire at the point of highest stress to handle valve train stress more efficiently and allow better heat dissipation for longer life.Kit Includes:26918-16 Beehive Valve Springs774-16 Steel Retainers623-16 7° Steel Valve Locks511-16 Valve Seals4705-16 Spring Seats”

Complete kit includes retainers and locks. Springs made of highest quality spring wire. Springs precision wound to close tolerances. Includes superior quality steel retainers. Includes 7 degree heat-treated valve stem locks. Retainers and locks black oxide coated. Non-Rotator style: Dyno tested and street proven. Great match to Edelbrock camshaft kit.

These grade 5 socket head bolts are zinc plated for protection and appearance. Hardened flat washers provide uniform torque & prevent galling on aluminum manifolds. Includes twelve (12) 3/8-16 x 1 inch bolts & washers.

Based on performer RPM-series with unique air gap. Air gap cooler and denser mixture for more power. Designed for 1500 to 6500 RPM. Dual-plane high-rise intake. For square bore carburetors only. For street and high performance use. Available in cast, polished or endurashine finish.

For 3500 to 7500 PRM. Use where low-end torque is not a prime factor. Great for engines with slightly modified heads. HEI ignition will not clear manifold. Street machines, street rods, pro-street and marine.

“Edelbrock part #2999 Victor Jr. 23 degree Tall intake manifold provides maximum performance for engines with standard port location, iron and aluminum cylinder heads. This versatile manifold is excellent for many applications from high-performance’s street to drag/circle track racing. This Victor Jr. 23 degree tall intake manifold features a 1″” taller carb pad than the Victor Jr. #2975.”

For 3500 to 7500 PRM. Use where low-end torque is not a prime factor. Great for engines with slightly modified heads. HEI ignition will not clear manifold. Street machines, street rods, pro-street and marine.

Edelbrock part #5001 Torker II intake manifold is designed for 1955-86 high-performance’s street 262-400 c.i.d. small-block Chevys. This Torker manifold is a singe plane low rise intake that’s great for high performance applications that have limited hood clearance. The manifold has an exhaust crossover for easy cold weather warm-ups, but no provisions for exhaust heated chokes or EGR. Customers will need either electric or manual choke carburetors. Accepts late-model water neck, air-conditioning, alternator and H.E.I. Intake manifold will fit Corvette and ’87 and later stock heads. Will not fit ’87 and later cast iron heads and will not cover port openings of Chevrolet Bowtie or LT1 heads. Not for heavy vehicles (trucks, vans etc.)

Designed to take advantage of the GM LS engine’s larger camshaft journal diameter, the XFI RPM camshaft line takes Xtreme Energy technology to deliver excellent power.

Designed to deliver an aggressive, hard-hitting exhaust note at idle, the Thumpr camshaft series from COMP Cams also delivers excellent horsepower gains and a broad torque curve. A perfect choice for muscle cars and street rods.

An older member of the COMP Cams grind family, the Magnum series of camshafts offers excellent performance gains over stock without the added wear and tear associated with more aggressive camshafts.

COMP Cams Xtreme fuel injected camshafts are designed for late model applications. Ground using faster-opening and more efficient ramp profiles, Xtreme camshafts are engineered for 1.6 ratio rocker arms and beehive valve springs, which provide a dramatic increase in torque and horsepower.

HYDRAULIC – Xtreme Energy: Strong torque. Excellent response, heavy towing in 454 with 4.10 gear.

Featuring a quicker valve opening, the Xtreme Energy camshaft profile provides increased responsiveness and more area under the lift curve than older, slower grinds. Designed to increase performance without sacrificing driveability and creature comforts.

Edelbrock part No: 97384 high performance hydraulic roller lifters for 1987 and later small-block Chevys are the perfect match for Edelbrock Rollin’ Thunder hydraulic roller cams. The Edelbrock Part No: 97384 are a drop-in replacement for 1987 and later blocks that accept factory roller camshafts. These precision hydraulic roller lifters feature tight ID tolerances that allow for better control at higher RPM and a micro finish OD for reduced friction.

Edelbrock part No: 9738 Performer-Plus lifter set for S/B & B/B Chevy is designed for use with Edelbrock Performer-Plus or equivalent camshafts. Sold in complete sets.

COMP Cams Hydraulic Roller Lifters are a performance upgrade for stock hydraulic roller lifters or retro-fit hydraulic roller lifters for non-roller blocks. The roller wheel decreases friction and increases longevity when compared to flat tappet lifters. Hydraulic roller lifters can handle much more aggressive cam profiles than flat tappets unlocking performance potential.
