S&S Cycle 07-16 BT Gear Drive 585G Camshaft Kit

This S&S Cycle 585G Gear Drive Camshaft Kit comes complete with the camshafts, their inner gears already installed, and a full installation kit. It's designed for a range of Harley-Davidson Big Twin engines from 2007 to 2016, including models like the Road King, Street Glide, and Fat Boy, as well as some 2006 Dyna models. This kit is a solid option for builders looking to improve their engine's performance, especially when working with 88 to 95 cubic inch engines aiming for a 10:1 to 10.5:1 compression ratio, or 100 and 107 cubic inch engines within a similar compression range, using stock oil pumps.

The 585G camshaft itself features a 0.585-inch valve lift for both intake and exhaust, with a duration of 245 degrees at 0.053 inches on the intake side and 260 degrees on the exhaust side. The timing opens at 20 degrees intake and 60 degrees exhaust, closing at 45 degrees intake and 20 degrees exhaust. A notable benefit is that this cam can be used with stock valve springs, simplifying the installation process and potentially saving on additional parts. The gear drive setup means the cams are driven directly by the crankshaft gears, offering more precise timing and a more solid connection compared to chain-driven cams.

When installing this kit, remember to refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific procedures and any additional components you might need. This kit is intended for experienced builders or those comfortable with engine work, as camshaft installation requires careful attention to detail and proper setup to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your engine.
