• Modified Crank Timing Gear - Factory K-Series Timing Chain Gears on your performance built turbocharged or all-motor applications have a higher risk of the timing chain gear to break its positioning dowel pin causing your engine to lose timing and potentially do major damage to the engine in this occurrence.
  

  The Modified Crank Timing gear solves this problem by modifying the factory gear to be locked in place using a crank key-way.

  Timing Chain Tensioner - Constructed of Billet Aluminum vs the stock plastic, eliminates timing variation under high RPM and load. Reduces flex for rock solid timing and consistent performance. Does not soften with heat. Works with all other factory and aftermarket components. BLACK Anodized for wear and corrosion resistance.
  Replaceable wear strips. Simply the strongest and most precise timing chain system possible.

Adjustable Cam Gear Set for Honda K-Series Engines

Are you installing performance camshafts or fine-tuning your high-output K20 or K24 engine? The Drag Cartel Adjustable Intake Cam Gear is an essential performance component that allows you to precisely dial in your camshaft timing, ensuring maximum horsepower and torque delivery. This gear gives tuners the necessary control to optimize valve events for specific racing or street applications.

Why is an Adjustable Cam Gear necessary?

An adjustable cam gear is critical for extracting maximum power from high-performance K-series builds by allowing you to advance or retard camshaft timing independently of the crankshaft.

• Tuning Flexibility: Allows for precise timing adjustments (known as cam-phasing) to match the unique flow characteristics of aftermarket camshafts, cylinder heads, and intake/exhaust manifolds.
• Maximized Output: Ensures the engine is operating at its peak volumetric efficiency across the power band, yielding significant horsepower gains over stock settings.
• Engine Protection: Helps achieve the ideal piston-to-valve clearance when running aggressive, high-lift camshafts.

Construction and Quality

Drag Cartel Adjustable Cam Gears are engineered to surpass OEM quality in both material strength and longevity.

• Material: Made from robust 8620 Billet Material, providing exceptional strength and rigidity.
• Wear Resistance: Gears are carbonized to Aircraft Specification to achieve maximum wear resistance, extending the life of the gear and chain under extreme racing conditions.
• Aesthetics: Features polished centers with the distinct Cartel Trademark Logo.

Engine Compatibility and Fitment

This Adjustable Intake Cam Gear is compatible with many popular K-Series engines commonly used in performance applications.
