Fidanza Offers Adjustable Cam Gears for 1994-2000 Model Mazda Miata 1.8L
While
the Mazda Miata is one of the best-selling roadsters in history, it is
also one of the most popular cars to take to the track on the weekends.
Now 1994-2000 Miata 1.8L engine builders can realize increased horsepower
by installing an aftermarket cam gear from Fidanza.
"The
Miata has always been tuner friendly and we knew if we could improve on
the original equipment cam gear with an aftermarket product that was
reasonably priced, Miata builders would respond," said Bob Scheid, vice
president, Fidanza. "Our cam gears allow for very precise cam degree
adjustment, which results in increased horsepower."
Fidanza's
Mazda Miata cam gear is available in three colors: clear (#9401840);
red (#940186) and blue (#940189). Made from lightweight, high-quality
machined 6061 T6 aluminum, the product is CNC machined to more exacting
tolerances than OE gears. Tooth edges are beveled to increase belt life
and the gear allows for 12 degrees (both advance and retard) of
laser-etched adjustments for proper tuning.
Stainless
steel studs are threaded through the backside of the outer gear and the
inner gear is fastened with stainless steel nuts and lockwashers. This
unique fastening system allows for an increase in the amount of torque
used to tighten the fasteners with no risk of stretching the aluminum
threads or slipping.
"Our cam gear line continues to grow in
both number of applications and sales volume," said Scheid. "This Miata
product is a great example of that growth and our dedicated response to
what the performance market needs."
