Good To Know

Q: Does this intake camshaft fit both cam positions? A: It is the intake camshaft only, so the exhaust side uses a separate part number. Q: Is valve clearance adjustment needed after install? A: Yes, valve clearances should be checked and set to factory spec after fitting this intake camshaft.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
