COMP Cams Auto Parts & Tools

COMP Cams is a specialty manufacturer of performance automotive, motorcycle, and kart aftermarket parts. COMP Cams is also involved in other aftermarket products through its parent company, the COMP Performance Group. By investing in research and development, it stays at the forefront of cam and valve train technology and is dedicated towards holding on to that position.

Since it was incorporated, COMP Cams has contributed to the automotive aftermarket and racing industries in many ways, particularly through its Spintron engine testing system. The company created a system of high-speed sensors and cameras that record data while using an electric motor to drive the engine. With the results of this testing system, possible issues in an engine's performance can be identified, and the data that it provides covers a number of areas including the valve-spring seat pressure, coil dynamics, lifter movement, and so on.

Despite not sponsoring a NASCAR team directly, COMP Cams does advertise through a deal where a contingency sticker bearing its name is placed on every single NASCAR car, and it provides awards to winning teams. It's similarly involved in other classes of auto racing such as drag racing, circle track, and even off-road racing. In many cases, COMP Cams engineers work directly with teams involved in these events that are using their products, to ensure the best and most suitable application.

As can be expected, COMP Cams offers up a rather extensive catalog of camshafts for a variety of different brands of cars as well as numerous other valve train components. These components include valve springs, timing sets, timing belts, gear drives, lifters, push rods, rocker arms, manifolds, and throttle bodies. Also other products such as valve covers, engine finishing kits, tools and lubricants as well as branded merchandise such as clothing and decals are available too.
