S&S, HP103 camshaft kit with Easy Start chain drive (CD)

0.575" valve lift. CD = Chain driven camshaft, complete kit with gasket and bearings.
Direct fit for stock 103" engines with stock compression ratio of 9.7:1 up to 10.5:1CR. Works well with unported heads and is excellent for CNC ported S&S heads. Best power in the higher RPM range. 3000-6000 RPM.
The Easy Start camshafts make starting easier by reducing the build-up of compression pressure in the cylinders during starting. This is achieved by slightly lifting the exhaust valve off its seat, by means of a spring-loaded compression release lobe inside the camshaft. After starting, the compression release lobe retracts through centrifugal force. The only difference is during starting, as you will now be able to start your Big Inch engine electrically with no effort, without the need for large batteries and/or starter motors. A stock starter motor and battery are sufficient. When the engine is running, the camshafts operate as normal cams, with no loss of power, torque or anything else.
Note: Only the camshafts of the 551, 570, 583, 585, HP103 and MR103 series are direct fit; the others may require grinding and need high-lift valve springs.
Note: Not compatible with 79cc S&S heads.
Note: Not compatible with kick-start models.
Note: Only camshafts manufactured before January 2010 will require adjustable tappets.
Note: Below 900 RPM a clicking sound may be heard. Adjust the idle speed to 1000-1100 RPM.
