M-8 Forged Roller Rocker
Arm Upgrades
S&S Cycle's engineers have addressed a potentially
important issue in M-8 engines. Big lift cams can
open up the high rpm potential of the M-8
powerplant, but they can also add stress to the stock
valvetrain geometry.
Valve thrust and valvetrain wear in big lift cam
applications drove S&S engineers to design stronger,
more durable components that will help dealers and
riders get the most out of the M-8, and first on the
list was forged roller rocker arms.
These new rockers are stronger, more durable, and
designed to be easier on the rest of the top end. Oil
routing is updated and is now sprayed directly on the
valve springs, helping cool and lubricate these hard
working parts.
Compatible with stock and most CNC-ported heads,
they feature a 1.640 ratio, which is capable of up to
.650 valve lift. S&S says that "we think these are an
essential modification for increasing the longevity of
valvetrain components, particularly with cams
running .550 or greater lift. Making big, reliable
power has always been what we do best, and these
new forged roller rockers are a solid addition to our
M-8 performance parts line."
