911SC 3.0 - New Camshafts

Hi

We live in Europe. The camshafts are damaged on 911SC, 3.0.

We want to buy new ones, and Porsche OEMs are too expensive.

Which suppliers are available for high quality standard OEM camshafts:
Partsworks.de, Rosepassion, Design 911 ?
Is the quality of the camshafts the same from all of them?
Trim camshafts are easy to find. Not so easy to find almost standard

Not so easy with standard? 👍
Having your factory cams refinished is generally an option.
If they are really nackered you can generally source good used SC.
Remember that 3.2 Carrera cams have the same profile.
If neither of those options appeals to you, John at DRC is our go-to guy.

We may have a fresh set on the shelf.

Thanks for the private messenger
We ordered camshafts from Catcams ( 5200109 ). These are high quality, are mild but give a little more than the OEM.
Has anyone tried these camshafts in their 911SC 3.0 ?

If you have a choice of whether the cams use the large nuts or bolts to hold on the sprockets, go with bolts. Then you don't need the big ass crow-foot wrench to install, remove, or time them.

Thumbs up

Ordered Catcams 5200109: Changing at the same time to euro 204 piston.
The data shows that Catcams are pretty mild camshafts.
Has anyone tried this or anyone with similar data? Experiences?
