S&S Cycle Easy Start Camshaft Kit 330-0459 for Twin Cam 1999-2006
Regular price $540.95 USD
Category:
The S&S Cycle Easy Start Camshaft Kit, part number 330-0459, is designed for Harley-Davidson Twin Cam engines from 1999 through 2006, excluding 2006 Dyna models. This MR103 chain-drive camshaft kit simplifies starting by initially reducing crank compression during engine cranking. As engine speed increases, the compression-release lobe retracts centrifugally, allowing the engine to operate with full compression and normal performance once running.
Designed as a bolt-in camshaft solution for 103 cu. in. engines with stock compression ratios from 9.7:1 up to 10.5:1, this kit delivers increased power throughout the operating range. It is especially effective between 2,500 and 5,500 rpm, making it suitable for street applications that require responsive acceleration and strong midrange performance. The camshafts work with stock, un-ported cylinder heads and are also well suited for use with S&S Cycle CNC-ported heads.
The kit includes camshafts, a gear-cover gasket, bearings, retaining ring, O-ring, threadlocker, and installation instructions for a comprehensive installation package. Made in the USA, the S&S Cycle camshaft kit is engineered for reliable performance and convenient installation when matched to the specified engine configuration. Before installation, the installer must verify coil bind, valve-to-valve clearance, and valve-to-piston clearance to confirm proper application and safe operation. This kit is not intended for motorcycle models equipped with OEM compression releases.
Features:
- Easy-start compression release: Reduces crank compression during startup, then retracts as rpm increases for full running compression.
- Engine compatibility: Designed for 103 cu. in. Twin Cam engines with stock compression ratios from 9.7:1 to 10.5:1.
- Application coverage: Fits Twin Cam models from 1999 through 2006, excluding 2006 Dyna models.
- Performance range: Provides increased power across the rpm range, with particularly strong results from 2,500 to 5,500 rpm.
- Cylinder head compatibility: Works with stock, un-ported heads and S&S Cycle CNC-ported heads.
- Included components: Camshafts, gear-cover gasket, bearings, retaining ring, O-ring, threadlocker, and installation instructions.
- Installation requirements: Verify coil bind, valve-to-valve clearance, and valve-to-piston clearance before operation.
- Manufacturing origin: Made in the USA.
