Cam Shafts
Skunk2 Racing camshaft profiles
are designed using the latest computerized valvetrain and
modeling techniques to maximize horsepower and torque. These
camshafts are designed utilizing years of racing experience.
The camshaft blanks are cast from the same foundries used
by auto manufacturers such as Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and Mitsubishi,
and utilize the latest in Japan chill-casting technology.
Skunk2 Racing camshafts are ground to exact specifications
using CNC cam grinding machines and are subjected to hours
of performance and durability testing. Skunk2 Racing cams
must pass stringent quality control standard that exceed OE
requirements.
STAGE 1: Street Cam profiles
are designed to offer the widest possible powerband and be
compatible with factory valvetrain components. The Street
camshafts are designed to retain stock idle and are CARB pending.
Upgraded valve springs are recommended, but not required.
Street profiles are relatively easy to tune for maximum power
output.
STAGE 2: Semi-Race Cam profiles
are more aggressive than Street profiles and are designed
for modified engines operating at higher rev ranges. Upgraded
valvetrain is required for proper operation. Stock idle and
emission characteristics may be slightly compromised, but
fair-to-good driveability allow them still be used on dual
purpose vehicles. Proper tuning, upgraded intake system, and
exhaust system are required in order to maximize the potential
of Semi-Race camshafts.
STAGE 3: Full-Race Cam profiles
are designed for purpose built race engines with high-rpm
capabilities only! Upgraded valvetrain and extensive engine
work is required for proper functioning of the Full-Race profile.
Compression and engine flow must be significantly increased
in order to ensure the proper functioning of the camshafts.
Full-Race camshafts should be installed and tuned by professional
engine builders only!
