Camshaft
We stock a
full range of Standard camshafts, which
represent good value for money. In addition, we offer a choice
of Performance camshafts - available either
as complete kits or on their own - which are designed to
improve torque and horsepower when fitted to standard or
uprated engines.
Our Mild
Road camshaft gives a noticeable increase in low rev
torque, with smooth idle characteristics and good fuel
economy.
The Mild Road
is a hydraulic camshaft, available on its own or as part of a
kit, including followers, single valve springs and fitting
instructions.
Fast
Road camshafts are available separately as a
hydraulic type only, or in complete kits as hydraulic or solid
camshafts. All Fast Road camshafts are suitable for engines
right up to 5.2 litres. They are particularly effective when
used as part of a complete Performance package with our Stage
1, 3 or 4 cylinder heads, uprated fuel systems and Sports
Exhausts.
Fast
Road Hydraulic is a hydraulic camshaft which boosts
top-end power whilst retaining low-end torque and good fuel
economy.
Fast
Road Solid is a solid-lifter camshaft available only
as a complete kit, which includes lifters, adjustable timing
chain set, adjustable pushrods, all necessary gaskets and full
instructions. The Fast Road Solid camshaft is designed for
serious performance applications, where maximum top-end power
is required, whilst still being suitable for the road.
All parts
listed are suitable for saloon/Sports and 4x4 applications
unless otherwise stated.
Camshaft Only - standard;

& efi.
Note: Some
later Rover Vitesses, notably twin plenum models, were fitted
with alternative camshafts, double valve springs, larger
diameter rocker shafts and adjustable rocker gear. These parts
are now generally unavailable but may be replaced using parts
listed below.
