S&S Easy Start Gear Drive Cam Kit
|
Want more mid-range torque? Looking for top end power? S&S Cycle offers a wide selection of camshaft profiles - from bolt-in performance to high life radical power, they have what you need to go from mild to wild! S&S does recommend that a qualified dealer, such as Star Racing, install your camshafts and perform the necessary fuel delivery calibration changes. Save time and money by upgrading your pushrods at the same time. S&S Quickee pushrod kits have specially designed adjusters that permit quick installation with minimal disassembly. Features & Benefits:- Start any engine with a stock starter
- Save your starter and battery!
- Reliable - tested for 100,000 accumulative starts and over 150,000 road miles without breakage or compression release failure
- Automatic - no buttons to push
Here's How It Works: - Each of the two exhaust cam lobes are equipped with a spring loaded compression release lobe on the "heel" of the cam at the point where the valve would normally be fully closed.
- The lobe holds the exhaust valve open slightly at cranking speed. This releases some of the compression, making the engine much easier to crank.
- Once the engine starts, and rpm increases, the compression release lobe is centrifugally retracted and the engine runs normally, with full compression, and without any loss in performance. This allows a stock starter and battery to start nearly any engine.
