Camshafts for BMW Z Series E85/6 (2003-2008)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

The camshafts are responsible for opening and closing the valves in time with the movement of the pistons. Sometimes the lobes can become worn or scored, necessitating a replacement of the entire shaft. Performance options are also available with more aggressive cam profiles that allow increased lift and duration.

E46 M3 Schrick 304 Degree Intake Camshaft with 14.0mm valve lift. This is only for use in professionally-built E46 M3 race engines. Schrick has developed this ultra-aggressive S54 race cam with 304-deg duration and 14mm of valve lift. Because of the aggressive profile and specs of this cam, Schrick only recommends it be used with no VAN0S or with special custom pistons with deep valve reliefs. We strongly recommend this be professionally installed by an experienced engine builder to check clearances and fitment.

Schrick also requires valvetrain hardware to go along with this cam:
Schrick valve springs
Schrick rocker arms
Schrick upper and lower retainers

Schrick has been dedicated to engine performance through the development of only the highest quality camshafts for more than 40 years. They've created a bond with BMW enthusiasts nearly the entire time, offering options for both the street and track using top materials for strength and accuracy. Schrick has grown into a technology center offering one of the most advanced locations for engine testing and manufacturing.

These cams are a direct replacement for the stock cams and give a solid 15+ horsepower boost at the top end and great midrange torque increases too! More gains can be expected with intake and header upgrades and custom software tuning. A slightly lumpy idle is expected at cold start, but will be smooth once at operating temperature.

These Schrick cams were initially developed for the M3 CSL, but they also work well on the US and other non-CSL S54 engines. With more duration, they are a great match to high-flow headers and CSL intake plenum upgrades.

KIT INCLUDES

Schrick 280-Degree Exhaust Camshaft Schrick 288-Degree Intake Camshaft 24 Turner Motorsport DLC-Coated Performance Rocker Arms NOTE: Camshaft replacement requires multiple special tools. We offer the Genuine BMW Camshaft Press (T#171829) and a Schwaben Camshaft Alignment Tool Set (T#395239) to aid in installation.
