The "accessories" shown in red above must imperatively be replaced according to the CATCAMS reference (click on the images):

Unlike many of its competitors, which machine their cams from cast steel, CATCAMS machines its camshafts directly from billet, which makes them far more resistant. CATCAMS camshafts are most often hollow in order to reduce their mass.

CATCAMS' expertise in camshafts and their ancillaries (valve springs, mechanical cam followers, vernier cam pulleys...) has been recognised worldwide for many years, thanks to genuine know-how and a precise study of engines and applications. Each camshaft profile has been developed according to the specific features of each engine, and also according to the intended use or application (road, sport, rally, sprint, circuit...).

Two parameters matter when choosing a camshaft profile: valve lift and angle (opening duration). A longer opening duration increases power and torque, while a greater lift optimises power at high revs.
