Short Travel Race Hydraulic Roller Lifters For Small Block Ford EnginesShort Travel Race Hydraulic Roller Lifters For Small Block Ford Engines
COMP Cams® PART #877-16 

Valve train innovator adds Small Block Ford to new lifter applications, taking both the performance & durability of hydraulic roller lifters to a whole new level

With continuous advancements in valve train technology, engine builders and performance enthusiasts alike are witnessing more aggressive cam profiles, higher valve spring pressures and higher engine rpm. Far too often, hydraulic lifters get caught in the middle of these competitive valve train innovations. That’s why engineers at COMP Cams® developed the Short Travel Race Hydraulic Roller Lifters using a design that maximizes the performance of hydraulic roller lifters at higher engine speeds, and now we’ve added Small Block Fords to the available applications.

With full travel hydraulic lifters in performance engines, higher rpm are often limited by the incorrect positioning of the lifter’s internal piston, which inevitably “pumps up” during the engine cycle. This improper location results in open valves and therefore leads to lost horsepower and sometimes even engine failure. With the COMP Cams® Short Travel Race Hydraulic Roller Lifters, the patent pending design minimizes internal piston movement to cut down on the open valve issues and allow higher engine rpm and thus increase horsepower.

The surface of these lifters has been black oxided to significantly reduce surface friction, wear and lubrication temperatures. This creates a high performance, high quality component. These high performance lifters are designed for any Small Block Ford applications originally equipped with a hydraulic roller cam or those utilizing the COMP Cams® Retro-Fit Kit for Small Block Ford engines that don’t require a link bar.

Pro Comp Head Test Torque And Power Data
Pro Comp Head Test-As-Cast vs CNC
It should be obvious from these power curves that porting really works. Equipped with the as-cast aluminum 190cc heads from Pro Comp, the 408 stroker from CHP produced 463 hp and 480 lb-ft of torque. After adding the CNC-ported 215cc heads, these numbers jumped to 505 hp and 489 lb-ft of torque
 
Intake Graph
Edelbrock Performer RPM II EFI Intake Install and Test - Edelbrock's Successful Sequel - Tech
Stock H.O. EFI Intake vs. Edelbrock Performer RPM II-306 Ford The graph shows the new Edelbrock Performer RPM II intake greatly improved the power output of the 306-cube test motor. The new intake upped the power peak from 318 hp to 385 hp, a gain of 67 hp, measured peak to peak. Near 6,100 rpm, the gains were as high as 87 hp. That is the kind of power you associate with a nitrous system or a good set of aftermarket cylinder heads
