We have been working very hard over the past year and a half to develop a product for the L series platform that will change things so drastically on power/performance that we felt it was time to debut what we’ve been working on.We looked over the web for quite some time, talked with a lot of racers during the prime of Datsun racing and looked at a multitude of camshaft profiles a lot of owners and racers were using. What we found was there was a massive disconnect on the effective means of power in the L series prime vs today. What we found unfortunately is that the cam profiles really didn’t measure up to allow for optimum performance and the factory setup limited the user so much it left so much off the table that we had to sit down and figure out how we can make this need for better performing parts a reality.
L4-6 ELITE TOWER
DATSUN L SERIES ENGINES HAVE BEEN AROUND SINCE THE 70s WITH A MULTITUDE OF CAMSHAFT SELECTIONS FROM REGRINDS TO NEW CAST CORE UNITS TO A MULTITUDE OF LOBE DESIGNS AND LIFT PARAMETERS. OWNERS AND RACERS ALIKE HAVE BEEN USING SAID CAMSHAFTS FOR DECADES WITH ONE SMALL ISSUE, YOU CAN NEVER MAKE THE LIFT OF THE LOBE PROFILE BIGGER THAN THE CAM JOURNAL WILL ALLOW DUE TO THE FACTORY 1 PIECE CAM TOWER BEING THE OVERALL LIMITING FACTOR. SOME THROUGHOUT THE YEARS HAVE MODIFIED THE CAM TOWERS TO ALLOW FOR HIGHER LIFT BUT IN EXTREME CASES BUT ULTIMATELY THOSE ARE FOR RARE OCCASIONS AND FOR THOSE CHASING EVERY OUNCE OF PERFORMANCE OUT OF THEIR L CYLINDER HEAD.
WITH A FRESH IDEA AND A NEW APPROACH, WE’VE COME UP WITH A CLEVER DESIGN THAT NOT ONLY ALLOWS THE END USER TO OPT FOR A SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER PERFORMING CAMSHAFT BUT WE CAN ALLOW THE USER TO EFFECTIVELY RUN LIFT PARAMETERS WELL OVER .600”+ WITH NO ISSUE. OF COURSE THE USER WILL HAVE TO ENSURE THEY HAVE CORRECT PISTON TO VALVE CLEARANCE FOR SUCH A CAM TO BE USED BUT THE CAPABILITIES NOW ARE ALMOST ENDLESS ON WHAT CAMSHAFT THE USER WANTS TO RUN. THIS OPENS UP AN ENTIRE NEW WORLD OF PERFORMANCE GAINS BY WAY OF CAMSHAFT AND VALVE SPRING SELECTION.
“A NEW CHAPTER IN DATSUN L SERIES PERFORMANCE IS NOW FINALLY ACHIEVED”“
WELL WHAT ABOUT THE SPRAY BAR ADD ON WE LIKE TO USE FOR ENDURANCE RACING?” WE HAVE YOU COVERED THERE AS WELL. ALL OF OUR ELITE CAM TOWERS FEATURE PROVISIONS FOR A BOLT ON SPRAY BAR TO BE USED. THOSE THAT WANT TO RETAIN THAT FEATURE CAN CERTAINLY DO SO WITH OUR NEW SYSTEM.
NO MORE WORKING HARD AT INSTALLING THE CAMSHAFT INTO THE TOWERS MAKING SURE NOT TO SCRATCH ANYTHING OR DAMAGE THE CAM UPON INSTALLATION. NOW YOU CAN GRAB BOTH YOUR FRONT AND REAR CAM TOWER (FACTORY) AND SLIDE ON EACH END OF THE CAM AND PROCEED TO INSTALL THE CAMSHAFT FROM THE TOP AND LAY IN THE FITTED ELITE TOWER STANDS AS THEY ARE INSTALLED INTO PLACE. SIMPLY FASTEN THE FRONT AND REAR CAM TOWER INTO PLACE THEN INSTALL THE ELITE TOWER CAPS ON THE MIDDLE TOWER STANDS AND TQ TO SPEC AND YOU ARE READY TO PROCEED.
THIS SYSTEM MAKES CAMSHAFT INSTALLATION MUCH EASIER, FASTER. OUR NEW ELITE TOWER SYSTEM GIVES YOU OPPORTUNITY LIKE NONE BEFORE TO ACHIEVE NOT ONLY BETTER PERFORMANCE BUT WITH AN UPDATED BILLET LOOK AND FEEL THAT IS UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE ON THE MARKET.
ALL OF OUR TOWER KITS WILL COME MACHINED UNDERSIZED. THIS MEANS YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE THE ELITE TOWERS MACHINED TO FIT FOR THE CAMSHAFT YOU INTEND TO USE. THIS ALSO MEANS..YOU GUESSED IT…BIGGER CAM JOURNAL OPTION! WITH A BIGGER CAM JOURNAL OPTION YOU CAN ACHIEVE A STRONGER CAM AND BETTER PERFORMANCE. (COMING SOON!…..)
THE UPSIDES ARE IMMENSE AND WE ARE EXCITED TO BRING THIS PRODUCT TO MARKET. WE FEEL ANYONE LOOKING TO BUILD PEAK PERFORMANCE OUT OF THEIR L SERIES PLATFORM SHOULD CONSIDER OUR ELITE TOWER SYSTEM.
STAY TUNED FOR FUTURE LAUNCH DATE / PRICING AND MORE INFORMATION. WE LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING TO SUPPLY TOP TIER PRODUCTS FOR THE L SERIES PLATFORM!
