Show original supplier description
The Schrick camshaft is a high-performance upgrade designed for VW EA 827 4-cylinder, 2-valve engines with displacements ranging from 1.5 to 2.0 liters. This asymetrical camshaft features detailed specifications including an intake duration of 272° and an exhaust duration of 268°. The valve lift is specified at 11.41mm for intake and 11.21mm for exhaust, with a cam lobe lift of 11.41mm intake and 11.21mm exhaust. Key timing figures for this camshaft include an intake opens at -23° and closes at 249°, while the exhaust opens at -247° and closes at 21°. At 1mm lift, the intake opens at -2° and closes at 229°, and the exhaust opens at -228° and closes at 3°. Valve lift at Top Dead Center (TDC) is noted as 1.26mm for intake (EM 1) and 1.31mm for exhaust (AM 1). Schrick recommends several complementary parts for optimal performance with this camshaft, including valve springs (part numbers 001302062 and 001302026), valve spring retainers (titanium top 001413194, steel bottom 001413094), and valve keys (MK8, 0894138M8). Hydraulic tappets with a 35mm diameter (086313804) are also listed as compatible.
