7C-0673 right camshaft for engine spare part

Short Description:

CAT 7C-0673 right camshaft is dedicated to the right bank of 3508 V8 engines. It controls valve timing for the right cylinders and works with matching left camshaft 7C-0674 for overhaul of large generator skids and mining power units.

description

Forged from alloy steel with deep induction-hardened cam lobes, this camshaft balances torsional strength and contact wear resistance. The 3508 V8 uses two separate camshafts for each bank, with unique firing phase and lift profiles that cannot be swapped. 7C-0673 governs gas exchange for the right cylinders following factory firing sequence, stabilizing combustion and reducing unit vibration. It fits stationary generator skids, mining prime movers and marine auxiliary engines, built for remote sites with continuous full-load operation and unstable fuel quality.

Part No.: 7C-0673
Name: Right Camshaft
Matching Part No.: 7C-0674 (Left Camshaft)
Application: CAT 3508 / 3508B V8 engine, generator set, mining power unit, marine auxiliary engine
Material: Carbon Steel
Structure: Dedicated camshaft for right bank of V-engine, timing gear not included

Product Advantages

1. Cam phase follows the right-bank firing sequence to balance exhaust temperature between banks and reduce knock and resonance.
2. Precision coaxiality inspection maintains stable oil film at low heavy-load RPM and prevents uneven bearing wear.
3. Adequate hardened depth resists cyclic load shocks of large-bore engines and slows pitting and spalling.
4. Distinct timing marks differ from the left unit, helping technicians avoid mix-up during assembly.

FAQ 

Q: Can 7C-0673 interchange with 7C-0674?
A: No. Their cam phase and lift profiles are calibrated separately for right and left banks. Swapping breaks firing order and causes rough running and misfire.

Q: How many 7C-0673 camshafts are needed for one 3508 engine?
A: One 7C-0673 serves the right bank, paired with one 7C-0674 left camshaft as a complete set.

Q: Do I need to replace left-side valve train parts together?
A: Left-side components can stay if wear and clearance are within limits. Only worn parts on the right bank require replacement.
