Under thermal cycling and normal oil degradation, the OEM internal locking pin bores wallow out, internal rotor vanes score, and return springs lose tension. This dynamic wear creates severe mechanical lash, resulting in the notorious cold-start \"diesel rattle,\" erratic camshaft oscillation, timing codes (P0011, P0012, P0022), and idle instability caused by unmetered timing retards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered to resolve systemic hydraulic leakage, this replacement VVT actuator pair utilizes precision-machined internal rotor cavities, hardened structural alloys, and high-tensile locking pins resistant to cyclical shear loads. These tight-tolerance hydraulic oil passages maintain critical oil volume across the entire RPM range, mitigating pressure drop across the journal. Paired with new torque-to-yield hardware, these sprockets restore exact valve advance and retard control under aggressive load changes without phaser bind or mechanical jitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 Intake VVT Cam Sprocket Actuators\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 Bolts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; min-width: 300px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2005-2010 Ford Mustang\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4.6L 3-Valve V8\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ \u003cstrong\u003eS197\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e300-315 hp \/ 320-325 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3R2Z-6A257-DA\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e3R2Z6A257DA\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e3L3E6C524FA\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e3T1008\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e917-250\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2005-2007 Ford Mustang 4.6L V8 SOHC 3-Valve (VIN 8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2005-2010 Ford Mustang 4.6L V8 SOHC 3-Valve (VIN H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions \u0026amp; Fitment Warnings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the S197 Mustang?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a direct fit for the 2005-2010 Ford Mustang equipped with the \u003cstrong\u003e4.6L 3-Valve V8\u003c\/strong\u003e engine. \u003cstrong\u003eDoes not fit 2-valve 4.6L or 5.4L engines; strictly compatible with 3-valve valvetrain architectures.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAre new phaser mounting bolts required for installation?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the factory phaser bolts are torque-to-yield fasteners that stretch upon installation and cannot be safely reused; this kit includes two replacement bolts to ensure proper clamp load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Ford Muscle Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintain consistent high-RPM breathing and uninterrupted low-end torque delivery on your 3V Mustang with valvetrain components engineered to handle heavy throttle and aggressive valve timing demands.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68058779025656,"sku":"DS-EJTKQ3VW1","price":96.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/cam-phaser-set-for-ford-mustang-2005-2010-4-6l-1.jpg?v=1794363286","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/products\/cam-phaser-set-for-ford-mustang-2005-2010-4-6l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
