Courage Series
New Cam Design
The new design cam reduces the number of parts in the
engine as the gear, lobe, and shaft will be assembled as
one part.
The assembled cam will provide quality control and
consistency in production on the Courage engine equal to
the Command Series engines. The design will implement
powdered metal lobes that are precision controlled with an

Engineering has developed a lighter balance system to help remove added stress from these moving
parts. This change will extend bearing life as well as hold vibration to a minimum for continued customer
satisfaction.

Single Link System
The new design takes advantage of a single weight with
individual parent material “plain bearing” hoops. The old versions
used a two piece weight with bearing inserts. The complete
assembly had been fastened with a single screw. The new
system uses two screws to attach each of the bearing hoops.
This new dual link system is used to keep the weight running
true. The old design used a single link that resulted in a twisting
