Product description
Volkswagen originally chose helical-cut camshaft and crankshaft gears. The main advantage of this design is quiet operation. One disadvantage is that the helical teeth generate axial thrust on the camshaft during operation. With a standard engine, this normally does not cause a problem.
When using a high-performance camshaft, the load on the camshaft drive increases. A straight-cut gear set is then the better choice. Straight-cut gears generate virtually no axial gear thrust on the camshaft, greatly reducing the load on the cam bearing thrust surface. Straight-cut gears also create less friction than helical-cut gears, resulting in lower power loss in the drive.
Keep in mind that straight-cut gears produce more mechanical noise than the original helical-cut gears. Their characteristic whining sound is especially noticeable with a quiet exhaust system.
This AA Performance gear set has been specially developed for Type 4 engines and consists of a straight-cut camshaft gear and crankshaft gear. Both gears are CNC-machined from forged billet steel, making this set particularly suitable for highly stressed and performance-tuned engines.
The set is adjustable and is supplied with adjusting shims that allow the camshaft timing to be set accurately. This allows you not only to correct any deviation in camshaft timing, but also to deliberately advance or retard the timing to suit the camshaft used and the desired engine characteristics.
When fitting a high-performance camshaft, we recommend installing a straight-cut gear set.
