COMP CAM 35-522-8 Xtreme Energy 232/240 XE282HR Roller Camshaft Kit with Premium Redline Performance Lifters FIT: 85-01 Ford 5.0L / 302 EFI Fox Body Mustang Thunderbird – Extreme Choppy Race Idle

Description

Unlock the Beast: The Ultimate Power Profile for Your 5.0L If you are ready to stop playing around and start making real power, the Comp Cam 35-522-8 (also known as the XE282HR) is the only way to go. This isn’t just a “street” cam—this is a Stage 5 high-output profile designed to push your Ford 302 or 5.0L Windsor to its absolute limit. Engineered specifically for 1985–2002 factory roller blocks, this kit is for the driver who wants to dominate the strip and still turn every head on the street. By utilizing the most aggressive Xtreme Energy lobe technology, it snaps valves open to a massive lift, creating a high-velocity air charge that stock cams simply cannot touch.

The Nasty, Aggressive Idle You’ve Been Looking For You want that signature muscle car thump? You’ve found it. The 35-522-8 delivers a wicked, choppy performance idle that sounds absolutely intimidating. Ground with a precision 112° Lobe Separation Angle (LSA), it gives your engine a raw, purposeful “heartbeat” that tells everyone you aren’t running a stock motor. Despite its aggressive sound, it is still computer-controlled compatible for mass-air or aftermarket EFI systems, meaning your Chevy or Ford sensors will still have the vacuum they need to keep your power brakes and accessories alive.

Explosive Top-End Power and High-RPM Dominance This is where the boys are separated from the men. While other cams fall flat at 5,000 RPM, this kit is just getting started. With a high-energy operating range of 2,600 to 6,500 RPM, you get a relentless pull that feels like it’s never going to end. The massive .565″ intake and .574″ exhaust lift work in perfect harmony to maximize high-flow cylinder heads, giving you the kind of “pinned-to-the-seat” acceleration that makes every gear a thrill. This is the ideal choice for a built Mustang or F-Series truck with 3.73+ gears and a high-stall converter.

Why You Should Buy: Professional-Grade Hardware for Peace of Mind High lift and high RPM demand hardware that won’t fail under pressure. That’s why we’ve bundled this cam with Redline Premium Performance Lifters. These lifters are built to handle the aggressive .574″ lift with ease, featuring high-capacity bearings and specialized internal valving to ensure your engine stays quiet and stable even at 6,500 RPM. Rebuilding your engine is a lot cheaper than buying a new truck, and this kit gives you the reliable, race-ready foundation you need to protect your investment.
