S&S 509G Gear Drive Touring Cam Kit

The 509 Touring Cam is designed as a bolt-in, high torque cam. 180 psi cranking compression, no need for compression releases. For 88 CID engines with stock compression ratio. Idle-4500 rpm.

Can be used with stock valve springs.

It's no surprise that the S&S 551 cams for Harley-Davidson bikes have become a favorite with late model riders. The only problem is that, due to the .550" lift, the 551 cams can't be installed in Twin Cam 88 engines without also installing a set of high lift valve springs. That means that the heads would have to come off just to install a cam. That's a lot of work and added expense!

Based on the success of the 551 cams, S&S has come up with 509 bolt-in torque cams that work with stock valve springs in Twin Cam 88 engines. Like the S&S 551 cams, the 509 cams are great for low and midrange torque, but the 509 cam's lower lift allows them to be bolted into stock engines with stock valve springs. That saves a lot of time and money on the installation, which makes the S&S 509 a lot more attractive to owners of older Twin Cam 88 powered bikes.

Questions & Answers

Ask Question

Does this kit use the original cam plate

By Anon.

Yes, that's correct - you are to re-use the OEM cam plate in order to install this kit. If you're looking for something that's better than the stock Harley-Davidson cam plate, we do have the S&S TC3 cam plate to go along with it. The internal oil passages flow more oil than the stock unit, so you the motor will run a little cooler. Of, since you're already in there doing the cams, you may want to consider the S&S TC3 Oil Pump & Cam Plate Kit which includes, obviously, the same cam plate along with a better oil pump. The pump in particular is much more durable than stock, and more tolerant of pinion shaft runout, so it'll certainly last longer all the while moving more oil throughout the engine and enhancing overall engine cooling performance as well. We cannot say enough good things about these cam and oil pump kits for HD Twin Cam engines!
