The SW8 camshaft has been designed to fill the gap between the legendary Swiftune SW5 road cam and the equally popular SW10.
This will suit the customer who wants a more powerful cam without taking the large step of using the SW10. It delivers extra power but, keeping the requirements of road usage in mind. The dyno test figures we achieved were from a 1380cc unit which was fitted with twin 1.5 SU carburettors, 1.5 ratio rockers and a Dimspeed cylinder head using 35.7 in and 29.5 ex valves. These were deliberate choices to replicate the specification that many home tuners might use when building their own Mini and Midget. our test engine also delivered 110 bhp at the top end.
On the technical front, this cam has been developed on the latest Lotus software. They are cross-drilled and produced from a steel billet using state of the art CNC machining.
The SW8 camshaft is machined from a steel blank, so there is no longer any need to send back your old camshaft! You benefit from a brand-new camshaft rather than a reprofiled one, offering better value for money. It features a surface treatment that provides improved wear resistance. Each lobe is drilled to deliver oil to the surface for continuous lubrication, unlike an original camshaft.
This camshaft is suitable for 1275 engines and above !
