This will allow the engine builder to take full advantage of the fine-tuning/degreeing associated with race specification camshafts. This helps ensure you get the maximum power, reliability, and horsepower from your engine. Unlike other kits on the market, the Achilles Motorsports hubs are designed with the correct offset to eliminate the need to use the factory-splined hubs as spacers. This ensures correct alignment of the timing chain. Included: Achilles Motorsports Vanos Elimination Cover 2 - Camshaft hubs with infinite adjustment Necessary bolts & washers needed for proper installation
