Complete Billet Oiling & Hydraulic Chain Drive Upgrade for Late Twin Cam Engines

Upgrade your oiling system and stabilize valve timing on your V-Twin with the S&S Cycle Chain Drive Cam Chest Kit Without Cams. Purpose-built for 2006 Dyna models and all 2007 through 2017 Harley-Davidson Twin Cam engines, this comprehensive chest pack provides all the high-performance oiling and support components needed to refresh your cam chest—allowing you to supply your choice of chain-drive camshafts.

At the core of this kit is S&S’s blueprinted billet aluminum high-flow oil pump and matching billet cam support plate. Together, they dramatically increase scavenge and oil feed pressure, eliminating oil sumping and protecting critical bottom-end bearings under severe heat and heavy load. Upgrading to S&S’s heavy-duty hydraulic tensioner components provides consistent chain dampening without the excessive drag or wear associated with factory setups.

Technical Specifications & Product Details

Engine Dynamics & Chain Drive Performance

### The Chain Drive Advantage for Twin Cam Motors

Unlike gear-drive conversions that require ultra-tight crankshaft runout tolerances (under .003″), the S&S hydraulic chain drive system offers forgiving compatibility with standard factory crankshaft runout specifications up to .005″. S&S’s precision hydraulic chain tensioners maintain constant, smooth pressure on the timing chains, eliminating chain whip, reducing mechanical noise, and extending component service life.

### Key Performance Benefits

Custom Cam Flexibility: Allows you to select the exact chain-drive camshaft profile tailored to your displacement or riding style.
Superior Oil Circulation: CNC-machined oil passages optimize feed volume and maintain oil pressure at elevated operating temperatures.
Premium Tappet Hydraulic Lifters: Includes S&S high-performance lifters for quiet, durable valve train operation.

Step-by-Step DIY Installation Overview

Installing an SThe **S&S Cycle Chain Drive Cam Chest Kit (Without Cams)** for 2006–2017 Harley-Davidson Twin Cam engines is designed to replace and significantly upgrade the entire oiling system and cam support structure while retaining a chain-drive setup.

It is ideal if you already have a set of chain-drive cams, plan to purchase custom cams separately, or want to upgrade the stock oiling components for superior reliability and oil flow.

### Kit Overview & Core Components

This package replaces the stock cast components with precision CNC-machined aluminum parts and upgraded internals:

* **Billet Aluminum Cam Support Plate:** Machined from high-strength billet aluminum to provide greater rigidity than stock cast plates. It resists flexing, keeping the cam and crankshaft aligned under heavy loads.
* **High-Volume Billet Oil Pump:** Delivers up to **26% more supply volume** and **33% more scavenge volume** compared to stock Twin Cam pumps. This lowers engine running temperatures, improves oil circulation, and prevents wet-sumping.
* **S&S Premium Hydraulic Tappets (Lifters):** Engineered to tighter tolerances to maintain oil pressure at higher RPMs and reduce valvetrain noise.
* **Hydraulic Chain Tensioners & Hardware:** Replaces wear-prone stock units with durable hydraulic tensioners, including inner/outer timing chains, sprockets, gaskets, bearings, and all necessary hardware for installation.

### Key Benefits

* **Increased Oil Pressure & Flow:** Eliminates oil starvation at high RPMs and reduces overall engine head temperatures.
* **Improved Engine Longevity:** Prevents common stock Twin Cam oiling failures and reduces wear on the valvetrain.
* **Flexibility:** Allows you to pair high-performance oiling components with any 2006–2017 style chain-drive camshafts of your choice (stock or aftermarket).

### Fitment Considerations

* **Dyna Models:** Fits **2006–2017** Dyna models.
* **Softail & Touring Models:** Fits **2007–2017** Softail and Touring models.
* **Crankshaft Runout:** Designed for stock or mild engines. If running heavy performance setups, ensure your crankshaft runout is within specification (typically **0.005″ or less** for chain drive setups).
