Camshafts / CanAm x3

BC Brian Crower Can-Am Maverick X3 camshafts are brand new, semi finished cam cores that allows the capability to grind unlimited lobe specifications while still maintaining the factory base circle size. Up until this point, the only camshaft options available for the ROTAX 900 ACE were regrinds cut from stock cam cores, which greatly restricts the amount of lift and duration possible due to base circle limitations, or expensive hardfacing or hard welding of stock cam cores. While hardfacing does allow for unlimited spec, you're at the mercy of these "welded up lobes" holding up over time and if they don't, you've got debris in your engine. The Can-Am X3 engine platform is part of the BRP ROTAX 900 ACE family of engines and the Maverick X3 features an intercooled, turbocharged, 900cc, 12-valve, double-overhead-cam, inline triple cylinder that is offered in variety of different horsepower variations. The Advanced Combustion Efficiency (ACE) technology minimizes mechanical friction at the same time that it improves thermodynamic efficiency for optimal engine performance. The 900cc displacement features a a 67.9mm (2.670") stroke, a 74mm (2.910") bore size with a factory 9:1 compression ratio. Since high horsepower, high rpm's and long rides can be hard on drive belts, Can-Am engineered a high performance cooling system for the fully automatic, dual-range, belt-type continuously variable transmission (CVT).
