This timing chain guide rail is a direct-fit replacement for Porsche 964 and 993 engines. It ensures the timing chain runs smoothly and stays properly aligned. Built to factory standards, it restores reliability and protects against wear or damage.
Fits:
Porsche 964 1989 - 1994
Porsche 993 1995 - 1998
Diagram Ref No 16.
• Position: Mounted along the timing chain assembly inside the crankcase, alongside the chain tensioner and sprockets.
• Function: The guide rail runs parallel to the timing chain, keeping it on its correct path between the crankshaft sprocket and camshaft sprockets, while working in conjunction with the chain tensioner to maintain stability.
Over time, guide rails can degrade, crack, or lose their smooth surface due to constant chain contact and engine heat. A compromised rail risks chain misalignment, noisy operation, or even serious engine damage. Replacing restores factory accuracy and reliability, protecting your Porsche’s performance and longevity.
