S&S Cycle Gear Drive Cam Chest Kit for M8 Engines

Elevate the performance of your Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight engine with the S&S Cycle Gear Drive Cam Chest Kit. This comprehensive upgrade is engineered to deliver superior cam timing accuracy and eliminate the complexities of the stock cam chain tensioner, ensuring a more reliable and powerful ride for your M8.

Description

Designed for the discerning rider, the S&S Cycle Gear Drive Cam Chest Kit is a premium Harley-Davidson M8 cam upgrade that transforms your engine's valvetrain. At its core, this kit features an advanced gear drive cam system M8, replacing the factory chain tensioner for unmatched precision and durability. The included M8 oil pump and cam plate are meticulously precision-machined from robust billet aluminum, then finished with a striking blue anodized coating, ensuring both high performance and visual appeal. This sophisticated design boasts independent scavenge sections for the flywheel cavity and cam chest, significantly boosting oil flow capacity on both the feed and scavenge sides. Debris screens in both scavenge pickups, along with a strategically placed magnet in the cam chest, provide critical protection against contaminants entering the oil pump, extending engine life. An adjustable pressure relief valve allows for fine-tuning even after installation. The kit also includes S&S Quickee Pushrods with finished pushrod tubes and S&S premium tappets, complemented by billet aluminum tappet cuffs. These hard-anodized black cuffs are stronger than stock, preventing distortion and dramatically improving tappet stability, especially in high-lift 0.485" and high-RPM situations. With an intake duration of 227° and exhaust duration of 243°, this kit is built for serious power. Made in the USA, this kit is compatible with M8 models equipped with VVT, ensuring a perfect fit and seamless integration.
