Joe,

The new camshaft has a 0.340-inch valve lift, the intake and exhaust lobes are separated by 113 degrees, and the seated duration is 248 degrees.

It is made from nodular iron which is the material of choice and used in nearly all new production engines.

The lobes are induction hardened to Rc 58/62 to minimize wear, and the 5 bearings and center gear are hardened to Rc 40/52 to keep the gear teeth from becoming brittle.

The new camshaft has passages that will supply pressurized oil to the plunger at the front of the camshaft and if the new camshaft is used with our “New Engine Kit”, there will be 17 pressure-fed bearings instead of 16.

Ford drawing A-6250 was used for all interfacing dimensions.

The new camshaft can also be used in all Model A, Model B, Russian GAZ, and German G28T engines.

The retail price is $375, and the 1st production run is complete and being transported in a shared container.
