About this product
Elevate your Harley-Davidson M8 engine's performance and reliability with the S&S Cycle M8 Chain Drive Cam Chest Kit. This comprehensive kit provides a robust foundation for your engine, featuring a high-performance oil pump, precision tappets, and durable components designed for chain drive applications.
Description
The S&S Cycle M8 Chain Drive Cam Chest Kit is engineered for motorcycle enthusiasts seeking superior engine durability and performance. At its core is a precision-machined cam plate and oil pump crafted from billet aluminum, ensuring exceptional strength and heat dissipation. This advanced oil pump design boasts independent scavenge sections for both the flywheel cavity and cam chest, significantly improving oil management. With a 44% flow increase on the supply side and an impressive 58% increase on the scavenge side, your engine receives optimal lubrication under all conditions. Debris screens in both scavenge pickups, along with a magnet in the cam chest, actively prevent contaminants from entering the oil pump, extending engine life. The pressure relief valve is conveniently adjustable even when the unit is installed in the engine, allowing for fine-tuning.
This kit includes S&S Quikee Pushrods and S&S Precision Tappets, which are hand-assembled to exacting tolerances. These tappets are designed to reduce valve train noise from start-up to shut-down, offer close tolerances for low leak down rates, and ensure fast pump up for high RPM performance. Complementing these are billet aluminum tappet cuffs with a hard anodized black coating. Stronger than stock, these cuffs eliminate distortion and significantly improve tappet stability in high lift and high RPM situations. Proudly made in the USA, this high-quality cam chest kit is also compatible with VVT models, offering a versatile upgrade for water-cooled M8 engines.
