These are for V8 55 cars supercharged or not from my understanding. Made by Pat (PTE) for VRP originally then a few remaining sets were available to the enthusiast market. I bought these directly from Pat at PTE.

You will have to contact Pat (PTE) for any infomation or questions about application, he is a member on MBworld.

These go for $2800 new, I'm asking $2300 plus shipping for the set

Please email me at sunirghosal@hotmail.com instead of PM...my allotted PM numbers are getting up there.

Notes:

(a) I do not have pics, they are packed in the original packaging (tubes) and ready to ship

(b) they were only used around 1800 or so miles

AMGSC

Why are you selling them? I will PM you.

Sunir

They were too aggressive for me...I don't like the lopey idle...they make great power but the profile is too aggressive for my comfort.

how much hp did you pick up

Sunir

I have these in my clk55 and they didn't sound any diff than stock in my case... but I do have amg single ehaust with amg muff and 300 cell 2ndary cats and stock primary cats. No rough idle at all.

PTE

I would be glad to confirm the specs & Condition of any used VRP/PTE cam you guys buy . I will do it at no Charge. for the inspection , Cleaning & Polish. other than that , there would be a ,return shipping cost.

Wow!

Amazing service. Can't beat that with a stick.

Sunir

I am offering these camshafts at a very reasonable price for the usage - Pat has agreed to inspect and clean and polish, thank you Pat.

These make gobs of power but are too agressive for my comfort (getting older I guess), I am not in need for maximum hp, I have all that I need out of this car.

Bump...I have the PTE camshaft and I love the look when people walk by when the car is at idle...it is usually a "WTF is in that car" look. Sunir is right...it is an acquired "taste" but still a great quality product.

I've attached 2 Youtube video's You can see the rpm never lays down & Pulls to 6800 rpm , No loss of bottom end Torque. The other is the cold start up. & Idle quality on a Mass air flow sensor type system. The motor holds 17" of Mercury at a idle in gear. Takes about 300 miles of adaptation for the idle to smooth up a little. This car Has a Modern horsepower ECU & TCU tune , It works very well and Andy did not disappoint me.

So nothing like the last video PTE posted of the CLK55?

I have wanted a lumpy stumbling idle out of my car since the day I've owned it..the kind that spills your cup of coffee at the stoplight..now that my motor is out I would love to do something similar. Would you say the 55 N/A motors need a more aggresive or appropriate N/A grind?

ProjectC55

Wow Patty,I would love my car to sound like that!

These cams are as big as you can go. Low speed driveability goes to Hell if I open the intake valve any sooner, and then if done , there is a clearence issue. These M-113 motors are built very exacting. Not much room to add for more valve lift.
These are limited production Cams. So used ones will hold their value. I have only 3 sets left out of 40 sets built.

Badblackfolife

they fit clk550 ?

Sunir

bump...cams still for sale, have not heard back from my "first dibs" buyer yet...

as for fitting a clk550, I think it should work but you will have to ask Pat (PTE) the maker of these cams for answers to that and any other technical question you may have...

PTE

Sorry ; These cams are not for the 550 4 valve per cylinder engine ,

i wanna cry!

Sunir

don't cry get a CLK55 and throw these bad boys in...there are only a limited number of sets out there and I bought these from Pat when he only had a handful of sets left, they are limited build from PTE.

Are these more aggressive than the Kleemann cams? I love the sound from the videos. I am about ready to start performance mods. Cams, headers, throttle body, and tune are the only things on my list so far.

Badblackfolife

clk550 already has better cam shafts than clk55 and a few cars faster so i dont want to down grade just to get cam shafts. i guess i will just wait if something comes out for my engine.

ProjectC55

What makes you say that ,plus these r for a totally different motor. By the way have you raced a W208 CLK55 ,they r faster than a W209 stck vs stock due to weight. My car is even lighter than both of those. Put these cams in either of these cars and you'll eat your words. These cams are not a down grade for an M113 motor.
Do you know how many cams your car uses? You need four of them while we only need two.

By the way Kleemann sells cams 4 your car.
