Ford Racing 302-351W Camshaft Retainer Plate

This product is a Ford Racing camshaft retainer plate, designed for timing chain sets that require a 0.250-inch thick retainer. It's made to work with flat tappet and hydraulic roller camshafts, and it's a production replacement part. This plate is crucial for preventing camshaft 'walk' within the engine block, a condition that can cause the cam gear to grind against the block's face. By keeping the camshaft properly positioned, this retainer plate not only safeguards your engine block from damage but can also contribute to freeing up a bit of extra horsepower.

This well-built retainer plate is made in the USA and serves as a solid option for many Ford vehicles. It's specifically designed for timing chain setups needing that 0.250-inch thickness, ensuring a precise fit and function. While it's a production replacement, its ability to protect your engine and potentially improve performance makes it a valuable component for anyone working on their Ford's engine.
