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.
Race German has devoted themselves to providing quality products for late model BMWs that cover both street and track applications. Race German has now grown their catalog to a wide variety of models and products geared towards keeping your car looking and running nice. BMW introduced VANOS in the early 90s, and it added variable valve timing to the straight six engines. Over time the VANOS unit wears out which can cause error codes or VANOS rattle. Race German has sourced quality replacement parts in an easy kit. Seal Kit: 1 PTFE Teflon Ring Seal 1 FKM (Viton) O Ring Seal 2 Copper Oil Pipe Washers Anti Rattle Bushing Set (1 Bushing + 2 Bearings) OEM Vanos Sealing Gasket *Note: a modified 18mm socket is needed to disassemble the VANOS unit. We are now offering this socket at a small charge. If you have a 1993 model single VANOS car, the 18mm socket will not work. You will need a modified 17mm socket.

Upgrade your M52B28 Engine with Cat Cams, a leader in the performance-aftermarket camshaft industry. These Camshafts will increase airflow into the engine by increasing the overall lift and duration over the factory cams. With their Sport cam setup, you can run all factory valvetrain, with no valve spring upgrades necessary! The VANOS (VVT) system on the intake camshaft changes the valve timing: M52 /B28: from 115° to 90° (exhaust: 105° fix) The data are shown for full intake retard (disengaged VVT). Check the distance between valves and piston to be 1mm at least with VVT engaged. Wrong installation will cause severe engine damage! Duration Intake @ .1mm: 257° Exhaust @ .1mm: 257° Intake @ 1mm: 220° Exhaust @ 1mm: 220° Lift Intake: 10.15mm Exhaust: 10.15mm Lobe Angle Intake: 110° Exhaust: 105°
