About S&S Cycle
S&S Cycle has built American V-twin performance parts in Viola, Wisconsin since 1958 — flywheels, carburetors, cams, cylinder heads and complete crate engines. When a Harley owner talks about a 124, a 128 or a 131 build, they are usually talking about S&S. Few names carry more weight with engine builders in this space.

Important Installation Requirements
To properly install the S&S Cycle 540G camshaft, you will need to purchase adjustable pushrods and heavy-duty valve springs separately, as these critical components are not included in the kit. While this cam can be used with a stock chain drive, S&S Gear Drive Kits are highly recommended for superior timing accuracy and overall valvetrain stability, especially in high-performance big bore applications. Professional installation and a custom dyno tune are essential to ensure your engine performs safely and to its full potential after this upgrade.
