HPT542 Chain Drive Camshaft Kit-Bolt In

Bolt-in big power for your Gen 2 M8 with the S&S Cycle HPT542 cam

It starts with that idle M8 owners want; the sound of something ready to perform, and when you open the throttle, you feel it. With a mile-wide torque band and high rpm horsepower, the HPT542 is what Gen 2 owners have been asking for

With .542” lift, it pulls from 2000-6200 rpm. Don’t have a Gen 2 but want this cam? Just use S&S Cycle .605” lift springs and you are set
