COSWORTH Duratec High Performance Camshafts - The Ford Focus Forum

**SteedaHector** · 06-18-2009, 04:30 PM

Cosworth has been engineering camshafts for nearly 50 years. That coupled with years of innovative multi-valve cylinder head design ensures our camshaft designs are the most efficient in providing maximum usable power across the widest power band. Each cam is ground from a new chill cast billet and finished using the same procedures we use in our extreme level race engines and available in tested profile combinations covering a wide range of applications. Additionally, Cosworth camshafts are ground with the timing slot positioned for optimum cam timing thereby simplifying installation. Valve springs must be upgraded when exceeding 7200 rpm and 9.5mm lift. Always replace camshaft sprocket fasteners when changing camshafts along with the addition of our camshaft friction washer (YJ0092). Note: Camshafts listed are not compatible with Mazda variable cam timing feature. Application power levels listed show the potential of the camshaft with suitable performance engine modifications.

Is this $199.95 per camshaft, or $199.95 per set? I know it sounds like a silly question, but they're usually $299, and sold per camshaft on FS's site.

Thanks for the Heads up I thought I had the Part Number on there.

That is only for the Exhaust Cam

I want to make sure I'm reading this correctly......

ON the Cosworth site, it says 210 hp for the 2.0.

Does that mean that with this cam, I'll get 210 HP or that it's for applications up to 210hp?

If it is the latter, how much gain can I expect from one of these?

These are part of the Cosworth kits, D1, D2 and D3, and these, if you have all parts of part 1 and 2, will net you ~210 hp. No, you won't get 210 hp on your car just with these.

expect a ~8-12 hp/tq performance if this is all you are adding to your car. a 2.3 dtec will see more gains,but not much more.
