What is included in the S&S Cycle 583GE Camshaft Kit?

This complete kit includes the 583GE camshafts with their inner gears already installed, along with all the necessary hardware for installation. It's designed to provide a comprehensive upgrade for your engine.

Do I need special springs for this camshaft kit?

For 1999-2004 Harley-Davidson Big Twin models, special springs are required for installation. However, for 2005-2006 models, this camshaft is a bolt-in and can utilize your stock springs.

What is the advantage of gear drive cams over chain drive cams?

Gear drive cams eliminate the timing chain and its associated tensioner shoes, which can wear out or fail over time. This results in more precise valve timing accuracy and removes a potential maintenance concern.

About this part

Product Details

This S&S Cycle kit gives you the camshafts with inner gears and a complete installation kit, ready to go into your 1999-2006 Harley-Davidson Big Twin motorcycle. It's designed to fit a range of popular models, including the Softail and Dyna lines, offering a noticeable improvement in horsepower and torque from 1500 to 5000 rpm. This is where you'll feel the power most during everyday riding and spirited runs.

What sets this gear drive cam apart is its ability to eliminate timing chain lash, which means more accurate valve timing. This also contributes to a smoother running engine. The "Easy Start" feature is a real benefit, allowing your stock starter to turn over even a modified engine without struggling. For 2005-2006 models, this cam is a direct bolt-in and can even use your stock springs. For earlier 1999-2004 models, you'll need special springs, so be sure to check your specific application.

With gear drive cams, you don't have to worry about tensioner shoes wearing out or failing, which is a common maintenance item with chain-driven cams. This kit is a solid option for riders looking to get more usable power out of their Big Twin without compromising starting ease or reliability.
