Drag Cartel Stage 004 Racing Camshafts for K-Series

Are you serious about maximum naturally aspirated horsepower from your Honda K-series engine? The Drag Cartel Stage 004 Camshafts are the result of years of high-end race development and dyno testing, engineered to deliver the ultimate performance profile for dedicated racing applications. They are designed to exploit the full potential of the K-series roller rocker assembly.

Why are Stage 004 Cams built for ultimate performance?

These cams feature the most aggressive profiles in the DC lineup, demanding supporting modifications but rewarding the user with extreme power and reliability at extended RPMs.

• Ultimate High Performance: CNC-ground profiles offer significantly high lift and duration, maximizing air flow for top-end horsepower gains in racing builds.
• Aerospace-Grade Rigidity: Constructed from 8620 steel billet material, these cams provide the utmost rigidity, which is essential for reducing valve float and ensuring stable operation at high RPM under competitive conditions
• Unleashed Potential: The design capitalizes on the K-series roller rocker system, delivering faster valve action and greater RPM potential than factory components.
