I would not say it's 'basic'. This is a bullet proof set-up for longevity (high mileage) kit and/for max hp tuning. On later model M8s, there's no need to upgrade the oil pump and cam chest if you typically just do day rides with your mates and/or intend not keeping your bike for years on end, then this kit is over the top, and especially if you do a Dyno tune and the tuner keeps some safety margins in the mapping so the motor is not stressed out to the max. Either way, if you have the money and are willing to spend it on this upgrade, it's a free country. All that said, this is a very informative video, thank you, the only things missing is an estimate of typical HP/Tq increases this chap gets for your hard earned USD3,200 + the tuner license, for this "basic" kit and then extrapolate the cost per HP to determine if we are just motor heads or if we should just a buy a Pan America so we have that HP right out of the box without spending the big bucks on a Stage II or III or IV upgrade.

I’d done the cast intake manifold and at least 5.5gs injectors. The cam plate/oil pump was a good addition but not necessary. The revised HD pump which you had works good. The only time you need an aft market plate and pump is with .520 lift or greater. Also it will depend on the crankshaft runout.

Even the Star Racing guy says the stock plate and pump are perfectly ok for a bolt in cam. If you want to spend the money, go for it, but it’s not necessary. And the “plastic” lifter cuffs are perfectly ok too. Same composite anti-rotation device that GM uses in their LS engines. The only reason you need to change the cuffs would be to allow for a higher lift cam. So you could have spent a lot less money. But hey, a blue cam plate is cool.
@michaelmitchell5909

Jim Berry... The stock cast cam plate has poor oil passages thru it and a weak oil pump so the motor suffers from the improper oil pressures....the aftermarket bliilet plates and oil pumps are made to remedy that flaw in the stock harley design, so the bliiet plates and pumps are definitely worth the money. You'd think for 30 grand and up your brand new 2023 harley would come with a billet cam plate and bliilet oil pump.....I guess if you want all that fancy crap on a stock bike you roll off the dealership floor you'll buy a 100 thousand dollar Arch motorcycle........

Yea, the "while we're in there" stuff, the shop owner keeps recommending seemed incredibly excessive to me. I know it's the absolute best and top of the line way to do it, and good on them if they have the clientele. For a guy like me, I'm looking at about a third of the price. I also am surprised he said 4-6 hours for a dyno tune on a stage 2 setup. That's a lot of money on the dyno, especially if the tuner is building off a saved tune from a similar setup. Upselling $800 in plate/pump, extra $100 for race lifters, $40 for a cam bolt, $80 lifter cuffs etc etc etc. I trust George Bryce's logic on this type of thing.

@Holy shiFt thats extremely important and I love how the use solid pushrods. I've always noticed that when shops cut the stock pushrods to do a cam chest job, they use adjustable pushrods so they don't have to open up the top end. They always are more noisy and will need tightened over time. Solid is the way to go. Your bike is amazing man and can't wait to see more content with it...

For me, the cost is ridiculous... stock is fine for me. I would have liked to hear what he does if the crank run out is excessive. Excessive run out will destroy that oil pump. I know someone who installed that oil pump with excessive run out. It destroyed his engine. HD denied his warranty claim because they blamed the new pump. It cost him north of $10,000 to make his engine whole again. The amount of money someone can spend on upgrades is prohibitive for many. With that said, it is fun watching people mess with these engines. Great video :-)

I would start out with an affordable older bike and go from there. these engines are getting so damn big that their air-cooled features cannot keep the bike cool enough to establish reliability. that is why many hotrod builders stick with the small block engine setups. they run so much cooler than their counterpart big block engines.

New Jersey...I'm sure guys mean well, but there's no way a stage II costs in excess of $4k.... I'm in Arizona and a stage II same parts, $2900 installed. You could buy a stage III S&S For what you're wanting.... So glad I moved from there...

Was interested in seeing how much the parts cost purchased online and I have a total coming up of $2,147.70 NOT including the S&S Oil Pump, Cam Plate or Chain Tensioner. S&S Tappet Cuffs - 79.95 Fueling Race Series Solid Lifters - 269.95 Fueling Solid Push Rods - 169.95 Fueling Outer Crank Sprocket - 59.95 Fueling Rocker Shaft Stud / Nut Kit - 319.95 Fueling Inner Cam Bearing 19.95 Star 30/30 Cam - 369.00 Star Racing High Performance Valve Springs 559.00 Price also doesn't include labor so if you're getting all that installed for $2,900 (and keep in mind I left out some parts) that's a freaking steal!

Spendy for sure. $3300 for the stage 2, $1000 for exhaust pipes and air cleaner, $1000 for dyno tune and you’re at $5500 for a stage 2. No thanks, buy it and drive it and save the $5500 for down payment on your next bike.

No feelings hurt. I did my own cam upgrade last year on my previous bike . I payed for parts and did the work myself. If you feel comfortable doing it yourself- do it , it’s fun and rewarding. If you’re not confident and want to take it to a good reliable shop do your comparisons and choose what seems best for you . 👍🏻

Pretty sad HD internal parts are cheaply made or added to a “high end” reputable motorcycle and customers literally buy into the hype no pun intended 😆 or is a stock HD just fine the way it is? A bike with no engine warranty ok stage 2. These shops are making a fortune from all the suckas who fall for this hype. I know friend who have a 4 stage and never race and regret S4. Stage 1 is suffice and still keep your warranty.
