Abstract

A modular camshaft assembly having an elongated shaft, at least one cam lobe assembly, at least one spacer assembly, and a cam adapter assembly is disclosed. Each cam lobe assembly is selectively secured to the elongated shaft. Each spacer assembly is secured to the elongated shaft, wherein the spacer assembly is selectively positioned adjacent the cam lobe assembly. The cam adapter assembly is secured to the elongated shaft and adapted to connect the modular camshaft assembly to a drive assembly.
