Engine Timing Tool Kit Porsche 911 996 997 Boxster 986 987

An engine timing tool kit used for timing and valve-train service work on selected Porsche and BMW engines. It includes the key locking, alignment and holding tools needed when working on camshaft timing, helping keep the engine correctly positioned during servicing.

Used for garage and workshop jobs where accurate engine timing is needed, this kit suits camshaft locking, alignment and related repair work on Porsche 911 996 and 997 models, Boxster 986 and 987 models, and BMW E60 530i applications listed in the supplied fitment. It is the sort of set typically used during deeper engine service work where components need to be held in place while timing is checked or reset, making it relevant for specialist servicing, repair work and regular maintenance on compatible petrol engines.

The kit covers Porsche 2.5, 2.7, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.6 engines from the stated model ranges, and includes a TDC alignment pin, camshaft lock and alignment tools, camshaft holding tools, a connecting rod centring mandrel, plus a piston pin driver and extensions. Having the main timing-related tools together in one set helps avoid hunting for separate pieces when the job is already stripped down. The listed OEM reference codes and engine code references also give buyers a clearer way to check suitability before starting work, which is useful for regular workshop use and planned servicing jobs.
