Take the engine completely apart, because it's located between the two halves of the engine case.

Is there a custom camshaft for a D15B to get more power out of it?

your best bet to get more power than a d15 is to engine swap. a b18, b16, or a k20 are the most readily available. youll probably end up spending less on a b18 swap than upgrading the cams on a d15

How do you replace the camshaft in a 1969 Volkswagen beetle?

The camshaft is right inside the middle of the engine. It is a big job and I think you will need more answers than you will find here to replace it. You better buy the book "How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive" Replacing the camshaft requires a complete engine teardown; there is no engine that I know of that's harder to get a cam out of than an aircooled VW. This is one of the biggest disadvantages of the VW engine design. Hot rodders LOVE hot cams because you can get a lot of power pretty easily that way. The difference between hot rodders and us is that if a hot rodder picks the wrong cam, it isn't going to take him a whole day to swap it out--and on Detroit iron, you can usually change the cam without even pulling the engine. You and I, if we blow our cam selection our wives will wonder if they're EVER going to get the table back. (Your wife won't let you rebuild VW engines in the dining room? Bummer.) I recommend mild cams on VWs, and getting your horsepower somewhere else--like in the heads.
