Finally an elegant way to secure your engine to the engine yoke. No need for sockets, washers, and oversized nuts to take up slack. Use these knurled nuts and adapters to mount the different length case studs to the yoke. These adapters allow clearance for mounting the clutch. Hard-coated aluminum and stainless steel for years of service.

Camshaft Alignment Tool – Precision Timing Setup for Cayenne S, GTS & Turbo Engines
This camshaft alignment tool is engineered specifically for
the Porsche 955 and 957 Cayenne V8 engines. Designed to accurately hold the camshafts in their timed
positions, this tool set is essential during timing chain replacement, camshaft
servicing, valve-train repair, cylinder-head work and full engine rebuilds.

Porsche’s M48-series V8 engines rely on extremely precise timing for correct valve operation and responsive performance. Even minimal timing deviation can cause camshaft correlation faults, power loss, poor running or serious internal damage. This tool ensures accurate, repeatable alignment every time.
What This Camshaft Alignment Tool Does
This tool set allows technicians to:
- Lock camshafts securely in the correct timing position
- Prevent
unwanted cam rotation during chain or tensioner service
- Correctly synchronise camshafts and crankshaft
- Assist with replacement of timing chains, guides and tensioners
- Align
VVT components accurately, ensuring smooth variable valve timing
- Guarantee precise valve timing for optimal performance
It is designed to replicate the accuracy and function of specialised engineering tools—without referencing original branding—ensuring professional timing results.
Typical Engine Codes
M48 engine family (including M48.00, M48.01, M48.50, M48.51 and related V8 variants)These engines are known for their robust performance but require precise tools for correct camshaft alignment during timing work.
Why Timing Components Fail on Porsche M48 V8 Engines
The Cayenne V8 engines, especially those exposed to heavy
towing, spirited driving or high mileage, can develop timing issues due to:
- Timing
chain stretch from age and heat cycles
- Worn
chain guides, causing slack or chain noise
- Hydraulic
tensioner wear, leading to startup rattles or timing drift
- VVT
actuator (cam phaser) wear, affecting valve timing accuracy
- Previous repair attempts without proper alignment tools
- Oil sludge or contamination, impacting chain lubrication and tensioner function
Symptoms include check-engine lights, camshaft correlation codes, rough idle, hesitation, and abnormal engine noise.
Why You Should Replace or Use a Precision Camshaft Alignment Tool
Upgrading to a dedicated camshaft alignment tool set
ensures:
- Accurate timing chain installation
- Protection against piston-to-valve interference
- Correct
VVT calibration for smooth performance
- Proper alignment during head gasket or valve-train repair
- Reduced risk of costly engine damage
- Reliable and repeatable workshop-quality results
- Confidence during major engine servicing
Because the M48 V8 is complex and timing-sensitive, using the right tools is essential for safe and successful repairs.
