description

The 211-0564 is dedicated rear camshaft for G3516C gas engine, working together with front camshaft. It drives roller lifters of rear bank and synchronizes valve and ignition events. This high-power gas engine runs continuously under high thermal load. Lobe pitting, spalling or journal scoring causes unbalanced cylinder performance, engine knock, abnormal exhaust temperature and power loss. Severe damage triggers valve-to-piston contact. This camshaft is supplied without timing gear. Functional original gear can be reused. Its timing profile is exclusive for rear bank and cannot be swapped with front camshaft.

Product Advantages

1. OEM dedicated timing profile for G3516C gas engine, optimized for ignition sequence and knock control
2. One-piece forging with high rigidity, heat resistant for long continuous operation
3. Uniform hardened layer reduces abrasive wear caused by contaminated lubricating oil
4. Sold separately without gear, reusable functional gear cuts overhaul expense

FAQ 

1. Can 211-0564 be installed on the front bank?
No. Front and rear camshafts have different lift and timing. Swap causes knock and valve collision.

2. Does it fit 3516 diesel engine?
No. G3516C is gas engine with ignition cam profile, timing logic differs from diesel 3516, non-interchangeable.

3. Can the camshaft stay in service with minor scattered pitting and no cracks?
Pitting spreads rapidly under continuous high temperature of gas engine, replacement is recommended.

4. What risk if I install new camshaft and reuse old lifters?
Mismatched contact surfaces accelerate lobe spalling during break-in and lead to early failure.
