Notes |
Requirements |
| 280/272 |
-Street performance cam, very similar to CSL cams in terms of power gain with stock-M3 like drivability.
-Installs like OEM with factory install tools.
-An ECU tune will further improve power gains and drivability (typically in the 14-20WHP range) |
-Must use new followers as a
minimum: ...OE followers are OK for 280/272 cams on street use.
-DLC followers arerequired for any sustained high RPM use, or cams can be damaged. |
| 288/280 std lift |
** The most popular S54 cams for Performance and Race Engines **
-A "hot rod" street cam. Strong power gains in midrange and high RPM. Thanks to the S54s dual VANOS, these are also street useable, a slight bumpy idle during warm-up, settles down nice and smooth approaching engine operating temp.
-Excellent Track and Race cam; very suitable for cars that need long engine life and great power.
|
-New Schrick DLC followers must be used with this cam set.
[We highly recommend that these are accompanied by a ECU tune for proper operation.] |
Longer durations &
High Lift Grinds |
-Each higher duration and lift offers incrementally better power gains over the 288/280
-Suitable for race use, ideally used along with high compression pistons. OE pistons will not have adequate piston to valve clearance.
-To be used along with upgraded valve springs + retainers, read tech notes below.
-ECU tuning or programmable management required. |
-New Schrick DLC followers must be used with this cam set.
-288/280 high lift can use VANOS with custom pistons, for all others we recommend removing VANOS. |
VAC Tech Notes:
All upgraded S54 cams must be used along with new finger followers (rocker arms). If the car is to be raced regularly DLC is recommended for all cams. The 288/280 'high-lift' cams must be used with high performance valve springs and retainers. VANOS must be eliminated with the high-lift 304/296 Race Cams. Our VAC CSL Replica Airbox offers extremely good gains with or without cams (25+HP verified to the wheels) have a look if your looking to make additional power, or instead of camshafts.
