S&S Cycle 2017+ M8 Models Gear Drive 475G Cam Chest Kit w/ Black Pushrod Tubes - Oil Cooled

If you're looking to get more performance out of your 2017 and later Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight (M8) oil-cooled engine, this gear drive cam chest kit from S&S Cycle is a solid option. This kit is designed to improve your engine's breathing and power delivery, making it a popular choice for riders who want a noticeable boost in performance without the complexity of chain-driven cams. The gear drive setup means you won't have to worry about chain stretch or tensioner wear, offering a more direct and reliable connection between your crankshaft and camshaft.

The 475G cam profile is specifically chosen for its ability to provide strong low-end and mid-range torque, which translates to better acceleration and a more responsive feel when you twist the throttle. With a duration of 213.5 degrees on the intake and 252.9 degrees on the exhaust, and a valve lift of .475 inches for both, this cam is well-suited for a wide range of M8 models, including the Harley-Davidson Street Glide, Road King, and Fat Boy. The kit includes matched components, ensuring proper fit and function, and comes with black pushrod tubes for a clean, custom look. This gear drive system also offers a more consistent valve timing compared to chain drive systems, especially at higher RPMs.

This kit bundles all the necessary matched parts together, which can simplify the installation process and potentially save you money compared to buying each component separately. It's a comprehensive package for anyone serious about upgrading their M8 engine's performance. Remember to consult your service manual for the correct installation procedures and any additional components you might need for your specific model.
