S&S Cycle Cam Chest - Water Cooled, Gear Drive, M8 Part 310-1261A
Regular price $1,623.95 USD
Category:
The S&S Cycle Cam Chest (Part No. 310-1261A) is a high-performance component designed for water-cooled engines with gear drive systems. Crafted from precision-machined billet aluminum, this cam chest features removable passage plugs for easy servicing and maintenance. An independent scavenge section effectively manages oil flow from the flywheel cavity and cam chest, while debris screens in both pickups help prevent contaminants from entering the oil system. A magnet embedded in the cam chest side assists in trapping debris, safeguarding your engine's oil pump and ensuring optimal lubrication.
Significant flow improvements are engineered into this cam chest, with a 44% increase on the supply side and a 58% increase in scavenge flow. These enhancements promote better oil circulation, contributing to improved engine performance and longevity. The pressure relief valve is adjustable once installed in the engine, allowing fine-tuning of oil pressure to match specific operational demands. This feature ensures that your engine receives consistent lubrication under varying conditions, reducing wear and enhancing overall reliability.
The package includes Quikee pushrods for fast, reliable valve operation. These pushrods are designed for durability and precision, ensuring consistent valve timing and performance. Complementing them are S&S Precision Tappets, which are hand assembled to strict tolerances for minimal leak-down rates and reduced valvetrain noise from startup through shutdown. The high-quality tappets feature billet aluminum cuffs with a hard anodized black coating, offering increased strength and resistance to distortion. This construction stabilizes the valvetrain at high lift and high RPM, providing smoother operation and enhanced engine responsiveness. Made in the USA, this cam chest assembly is compatible with VVT models and is ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved oil flow, durability, and performance in their engine setup.
