Engle TCS30 Turbo Camshaft 419/418 Lift 308/301 Duration 112 Lobe Center
Description
The Engle TCS30 camshaft is Engle's largest turbo-specific grind designed for strong upper RPM power and high boost applications in air-cooled VW Type 1 engines in the 1915cc - 2332cc+ range. Reduced overlap improves boost efficiency while allowing increased airflow at higher engine speeds, making it ideal for aggressive street-strip and race-oriented turbocharged builds. Quality valvetrain are a must, requiring dual springs, chromoly pushrods, quality lifters and rockers.
Specifications
- Advertised duration: ~308°/294°
- Duration @ .050": 268°/253°
- Cam Lift: .419"/.396"
- Lobe Center: 112°
- Recommended Rocker Ratio: 1.1:1 (1.25:1 or higher optional)
- Powerband: ~3500-8000+ RPM
Fitment
VW Type 1 air-cooled engines (1915cc-2332cc+), including Beetle, Ghia, Bus, and dune buggy builds. Best suited for turbocharged engines with draw-through or blow-through carburetor setups or fuel injection systems where high RPM performance and maximum airflow are priorities.
Similar Camshafts
- Engle TCS20 - Less aggressive turbo grind with better mid-range response
- Drews 909 - Naturally aspirated but with similar overlap and lift
- Engle W120 - Naturally aspirated alternative for performance builds
Tech Tips
- Supporting parts: Turbo system, dual carburetors or EFI, header exhaust, HD dual valve springs, chromoly pushrods, lifters
- Target compression ratio: 8.5:1-9.5:1 depending on boost level
- Cam gear bolt torque: 18-25 ft-lbs
- Break-in: Use high-zinc oil, run at 2,000-2,500 RPM for 20 minutes, avoid idling during initial startup
